Neeraj Pandey to bring Kartik Aaryan on board for his next?

Apart from the much praised biopic of cricketer MS Dhoni, filmmaker Neeraj Pandey has mostly made thrillers so far, including the successful ‘Baby’ franchise, the critically acclaimed ‘Special 26’ and ‘Rustom’. However, he seems to shift into a light-hearted genre as he is now planning a comedy revolving around army officers and their tricks to handle juniors.

If rumours are to be believed, then Neeraj has roped in youngster Kartik Aaryan. “The film is titled ‘Jhoota Kahin Ka’ and will be a humorous take on how army officers deal with their juniors. It will be a good change for Neeraj, who has mostly directed thrillers apart from the MS Dhoni biopic,” a source from the team told Mid-day.

Apparently, the makers are now looking for the perfect leading lady.

Kartik is presently busy with ‘Guest Iin London’ wherein he appears along with Paresh Rawal, Tanvi Azmi and will be seen romancing one-film old Kriti Kharbanda.
