A new report had claimed that Bollywood’s beloved ‘VARIA’ aka Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt are not returning for Dulhania 3. Varun and Alia were seen in the blockbuster films Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania and Badrinath Ki Dulhania. Speculations were rife that Dharma Productions has already roped in Janhvi Kapoor to fill in Alia’s shoes in the third film.
A source told PeepingMoon.com that Janhvi will be the new ‘Dulhania’ of the franchise. Although it is unclear why Alia is not returning to the hit franchise, it is possible that her busy schedule in 2024 could be clashing with the Dulhania 3 plans.
Karan Johar, however, has refuted the claims. He said these are merely conjectures and untrue. Taking to his Instagram, he wrote, “Every morning I wake upto news that is not an official confirmation by Dharma productions… would request members of the media to please not conjecture about the continuance of a franchise or the beginning of one! We will give details when the time and plans are formulated and fructified! We are humbled by the excitement shown to our future films but would love to have accuracy instead of speculation… Respectfully, Karan Johar.”
This comes after the report read that Shashank Khaitan is returning to direct Dulhania 3. “Dulhania 3 will have a different plot and characters and is in no way connected to the previous parts, much like the approach taken with Badrinath Ki Dulhania. The pre-production for the film has already begun and will go on the floor in the next few months,” the report stated.
Interestingly, the report comes just hours after Karan teased that Janhvi has a big project in her kitty that he and Janhvi were not allowed to talk about. Karan made the tease in the recent episode of Koffee With Karan 8.
