Amidst talk of potential casting in the new film, recent updates reveal a significant alteration in the film’s title. Rumours are rife that the film’s title has been changed from ‘Aashiqui 3’ to ‘Tu Aashiqui Hai‘.According to sources cited by Times Now, this new title pays homage to the 1981 classic ‘Basera’, featuring Shashi Kapoor, Rakhee, and Rekha.
The film is slated to commence production later this year, with Kartik confirmed as the male lead. However, the producers are still in the process of finalizing another actress for a pivotal role in the movie. While Kartik, has long been rumoured to be starring alongside Tripti Dimri in the third instalment of the romantic saga, reports indicate that he could also star opposite Sara Ali Khan after their stint together in ‘Love Aaj Kal’.
Previously, Mukesh Bhatt hinted that rumours about the female leads may be far from the truth as he claimed that the makers are looking forward to casting a fresh face in the third part of the franchise. The producer claimed that his team was actively scouting for the perfect candidate to portray the lead female character.
Simultaneously, the screenplay for the film is nearing completion, and preparations are underway for production.
Kartik also has ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’ that is ready to go on floors. He will be seen starring alongside Vidya Balan in the upcoming horror-comedy.
