And the stars are locked! Ishaan Khatter and Jhanvi Kapoor in ‘The Fault In Our Stars’ remake

There have been numerous speculations of entry and exit of stars from the remake of celebrated Hollywood movie ‘The Fault In Our Stars’. And now, finally, the leads have been locked for the same. Yes, it will be the Bollywood debut of two star kids, Jhanvi Kapoor and Ishaan Khatter.

The same was confirmed in a report by Mumbai Mirror. The report also stated that the remake will be helmed by Shashank Khaitan, who last held the reigns of Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt-starrer, superhit of 2017, ‘Badrinath Ki Dulhania’.

Many names like Aditya Roy Kapur-Alia Bhatt, and Deepika Padukone-Sushant Singh Rajput had already done rounds, before being refuted. It will be interesting to watch a fresh pairing like that of Ishaan and Jhanvi, in this beautiful plot which had the cinema lovers all over the world sniffing in their handkerchiefs.

Though it was sure that Jhanvi Kapoor will be making her Bollywood debut soon, we did not know which movie would be her launch platform. This is indeed a good news. There were also rumours that Jhanvi and Ishaan will be making their debut in the Hindi remake of Marathi superhit ‘Sairat’, rights of which were bought by Karan Johar, but there was no confirmation of the same.

This will be Ishaan’s first Bollywood film, but overall second, after Iranian director Majid Majidi’s ‘Beyond The Clouds’.
