wonderful onscreen camaraderie,
considering they've delivered hit films like
Student of The Year, Humpty Sharma Ki
Dulhania and Badrinath Ki Dulhania,
together. Speculations have been rife for a
while that filmmaker Karan Johar was keen
to cash in on their chemistry with his next
magnum opus, Shiddat. Apparently, Karan
also brought Aditya Roy Kapur, Sanjay Dutt
and Sridevi onboard for the film.
However, now in a shocking development,
the film's existence has come into question.
When asked about the film during the
Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards 2017 in
Mumbai on Friday, both Varun and Alia
denied the reports saying they have no idea
of any such film. "Which movie? Who told
you that? We don't know any such movie
exists" said Varun. Moreover, Alia added,
"Who told you that? I don't know about
such movie."
Earlier, it was reported that Varun and
Aditya will be seen playing brothers with a
tense relationship while Sanjay Dutt and
Sridevi will reprise the role of their parents.
Written by Gulab Gullati and Abhishek
Varman, the film was said to be set against
the backdrop of India-Pakistan partition
period.
Well, we wonder if the project is indeed
shelved or the lead actors are just trying to
not reveal anything about the film as of yet.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Varun has
recently wrapped up Shoojit Sircar's October
and will next be seen in Yash Raj Films' Sui
Dhaaga. Alia, on the other hand, has her
schedule full with Raazi, Gully Boy and
Brahmastra.
