EXCLUSIVE: After Kartik Aaryan, Ayushmann Khurrana also offered Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 now
The second installment of Akshay Kumar and Vidya Balan starrer Bhool Bhulaiyaa is supposed to roll out towards the end of this year. The makers are looking out for a younger cast to fit in the actors' shoes.
In the last few weeks, one news that has grabbed several headlines is the sequel to Akshay Kumar-Vidya Balan starrer Bhool Bhulaiyaa. The makers have decided to come up with a part two and we hear they want to make it with a younger star this time. There were reports that Kartik Aaryan has been offered the lead role, which is in fact true, but we hear the makers have now approached another male star to step into Akki's shoes.
Our source, from the production, reveals, "Ayushmann Khurrana met the film's team. The makers are planning to mount the film on a huge scale. When they narrated the film to Ayushmann, he really loved the script. They are still in discussions but he has not given it a go ahead yet. Nevertheless, the three primary characters in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 are equally prominent and well-sketched. Ayushmann is being considered for the main lead."
They haven't yet offered the project to any heroine, as of now. Our informer adds, "They will take a call on the actress only once they lock the actor. But they do have a few options in mind from the younger generation. They want a strong performer since the character is extremely demanding and challenging."
As for Ayushmann, although he's liked the idea, there's a major roadblock. "He already has committed to three other projects which he's simultaneously shooting. The makers are eyeing to go on floors by 2019 end and his dates look choc-a-bloc till then. So there's a possibility he might not even be able to do it."
