They are one of the most successful onscreen pair in current times after starring in number of hits like 'Singh Is King' and 'Welcome'.
And Akshay, who plays a crook in the Farah Khan directed film, has rubbished reports of tension between him and Kaif.
"Katrina and I go back a long way and she is a dear friend of mine and has always been there. I would like to clarify that she is one of the most professional stars we have and she and I are amused with these reports since there is absolutely no truth to them," Akshay said in a statement.
Backing his comments director-choreographer Farah Khan said, "There is absolutely no problem between any of us. Katrina is a wonderful girl and very professional. She has done a great job in Tees Maar Khan."
According to reports Kaif was apparently unable to provide dates for a music video that led to the tiff.
"Katrina's schedule is as hectic as ever –she is currently shooting for a Yash Raj film, Zoya's film and Dostana 2. But she made sure she devoted dates for the music video and flew down to shoot it. She shares a great rapport with Akshay Kumar and Farah Khan," a source close to the actress said.
The film, which sees Kaif donning the role of a wannabe item girl, will be complete after the qawalli number.
