Karan Johar opens up about Alia Bhatt’s casting in ‘Dostana 2’

Since the past two days, there have been reports stating that Alia Bhatt has been finalised for ‘Dostana 2’. According to Mumbai Mirror, the talks for the sequel have begun as KJo has green lit the project after almost 11 years of his original film having been released. Also, the reports said that Alia was in talks for the female lead while the other two male co-stars are yet to be finalised. When Karan read the reports in media, he took to social media to clarify the air.

On Twitter, KJo said that no one has been finalised for the film yet. He mentioned that some ideas have been underway about the casting. However, nothing has been officially done yet. Here’s all that Karan tweeted:

‘Dostana’s sequel has been in the talks for the past decade. Tarun Mansukhani, who directed ‘Dostana’, was taking scripts to Karan time and again, but nothing was getting finalised. He finally went ahead to make another film ‘Drive’ starring Sushant Singh Rajput and Jacqueline Fernandez.

Talking of ‘Dostana’, the chemistry between John Abraham, Abhishek Bachchan, Priyanka Chopra and Bobby Deol was loved by every age group and it’s difficult to recreate the same. Maybe that’s the reason why the sequel is taking so long to go on the floors.

Now that KJo has finally said yes to the sequel, let’s wait and watch who will be playing the lead characters in the film.

For more updates, stay tuned.
