Kartik Aaryan and Sreeleela tease Diwali 2025 release with on-set selfie; SEE PIC

Kartik Aaryan fuels anticipation with a flurry of projects and a fresh update from set. On Tuesday, the actor posted a joyful mirror selfie with actress Sreeleela, announcing the completion of a significant filming schedule for their upcoming movie. "Long but a very fulfilling Schedule Wrap #Diwali2025," Kartik penned in the caption, suggesting a holiday release.

Although the film's title remains unconfirmed, it's widely speculated to be "Aashiqui 3," directed by Anurag Basu. Kartik and Sreeleela look relaxed in the behind-the-scenes photo, but the film's buzz indicates it's anything but ordinary. Kartik is expected to sport a rugged look with long hair and a beard. With Basu's storytelling and Kartik's popularity, the Diwali 2025 release has already sparked interest.

In addition to the romantic drama, Kartik has a busy schedule. He's reuniting with director Sameer Vidwans for "Tu Meri Main Tera, Main Tera Tu Meri," a romantic comedy set for release on February 13, 2026. Produced by Dharma Productions, the film follows their previous work on "Satyaprem Ki Katha." While details are scarce, the genre and timing indicate a Valentine's Day special.

However, the most surprising addition to Kartik's upcoming projects is "Nagzilla," a fantasy comedy where he portrays an "ichchadhari naag." Directed by "Fukrey" director Mrighdeep Singh Lamba, the film promises a unique storyline with Kartik in a new role. He recently shared a dramatic motion poster, showing a shirtless Kartik in a snake lair, overlooking a cityscape.

Insaanon wali pichharein toh bahut dekh leen, ab dekho naagon wali pichchar… #Naagzilla – Naag lok ka Pehla kaand. Funnn phailaane aa raha hu main

- Kartik

"Nagzilla" is scheduled for release on August 14, 2026, coinciding with Naag Panchami.
