Dharma Production casts trio for latest film production

We have heard numerous rumours about Fawad Khan's next Bollywood venture after the tremendous success of his debut Hindi film Khoobsurat. It is now confirmed that the Pakistani heartthrob will next appear in Karan Johar's Kapoor and Sons alongside Alia Bhatt and Sidharth Malhotra.

The Kuch Kuch Hota Hai director took to Twitter and excitedly broke the news:

The film is a family drama and will be produced by Shakun Batra whose claim to fame was his film Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu featuring Imran Khan and Kareena Kapoor. Titled Kapoor and Sons, the film's story is about a "modern family with a love triangle embedded in it", tweeted KJo.

The film will also feature Rishi Kapoor. According to entertainment website Bollywood Hungama, Rishi plays the grandfather while Sidharth Malhotra, Alia Bhatt and Fawad Khan will play Rishi's grandchildren. The very important roles of Rishi's son and daughter-in-law are yet to be cast.

Reportedly, Shakun has been eager to do a film with Alia Bhatt after their last successful internet film venture, Alia Genius Of The Year.

It was earlier being said that Sidharth, Alia and Fawad could be cast for the remake of Ram Lakhan which is to be directed by Rohit Shetty. Karan denied this as well on twitter:

sana | 9 years ago | Reply Fawad is committing professional suicide. Doing a movie with 2 favourites of dharma production. We can imagine what kind of role he will be playing in movie. As we have already seen ali zafar doing an ordinary supporting role in kill dil.
Actual Lahori | 9 years ago | Reply @lahori: This proves you dimwit are from India under a pretense name. Our actors and musicians were equally appreciated here and it was the fame here that opened up the possibilities of landing international gigs and movies. We did have a dark phase in between but fortunately our film industry have started to produce great movies again. And our small screen project are and always will be much better than India's. Peace.
