There have also been ample speculations around the female lead of the film, with some reports stating that Janhvi Kapoor has come on board the Sajid Nadiadwala production, while some others informing that Kiara Advani will be stepping in place of Janhvi.

Janhvi Kapoor is the frontrunner at the moment to bag the female lead.

“Kiara Advani is doing another film for Sajid Nadiadwala, which goes on the floors in the month of February. It’s a romantic film with Kartik Aaryan in the lead that’s directed by Sameer Vidwans,” the source added.  While reports suggested that the Nitesh Tiwari film will go on floors in February, we can confirm that the film begins only in April.  It marks the reunion of Sajid Nadiadwala and Nitesh Tiwari after Chhichhore, which was bestowed with a National Award recently.
