Varun-Arjun to sign Abhishek Varman’s ‘Shiddat’?
BizAsiaLive.com reported last year that Arjun Kapoor was likely to come together with Varun Dhawan for Abhishek Varman’s two hero film, ‘Shiddat’. It was since reported that the Dharma Productions film was on the backburner but now it’s emerged that the two have definitely been approached.
Mumbai Mirror reports that the two are favourites for the period drama. Although Varman hasn’t commented yet, it seems the film could see the two actors – who recently shared the ‘Koffee with Karan’ sofa together – uniting for the film. A source stated, “He (Varman) is fine-tuning the script at the moment and will be presenting the final draft to Karan in a week’s time. Casting is underway. Contrary to rumours, the film is not on the backburner now. Karan didn’t want to go ahead without the perfect script but things seem to be working out now. The film is expected to go on the floors in the coming months”.
Kapoor and Dhawan have been friends since before they step foot in the industry as actors and if their off-screen chemistry is anything to go by then them taking up a film together will definitely be one to watch.
There was buzz last year that Alia Bhatt could be seen as the leading lady in the film too, having acted with both before.
