Kriti Sanon will star in the Allu Arjun starrer ‘Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo’ remake- a reunion of sorts with Kartik Aaryan after ‘Luka Chuppi’. Kartik had been finalised since some time and Kirti had been working out her dates for the film in question, which will be directed by Rohit Dhawan.
The film was being planned for a June start but that did not happen. Now, Kirti has confirmed her availability for the movie and it will go on floors in November.
The makers were said to be in talks with two other actresses but those talks have all been closed now.
Pooja Hegde was the female lead in the Allu Arjun original. So, Kartik plays Allu Arjun’s role and Kirti gets into Pooja’s shoes.
The Hindi remake will be produced by Allu Aravind, Aman Gill and S Radha Krishna, who produced the Telugu original. When contacted, Gill did not deny the development but only said, “It’s currently work in progress and we shall make a formal announcement soon.”
