It was officially announced that Kartik Aaryan will be playing the lead role in the Hindi remake of the Kannada hit film, Kirik Party.
The makers of the film have even roped in Jacqueline Fernandez to play the female lead. However, the latest buzz suggests that Kartik has opted out of the project citing creative differences. Talking about the same, a source says, “Directed by Abhishek Jain, the film was to roll last October. However, the script had to be sent back to the writing table as most people on board felt that the adaptation failed to capture the humour and charm that made the original Kannada film such a success.”
The source added, “Kartik wasn’t sold on the revised screenplay. A few weeks ago, he had a meeting with the producers and expressed his doubts. Also, since he has allotted bulk dates in May to Imtiaz Ali’s AajKal, the date clash was posing another problem. So, he decided to leave the project. The makers are currently scouting for a new lead.”
Meanwhile, Kartik will next be seen in Pati Patni Aur Woh remake opposite Bhumi Pednekar and Ananya Panday. The film is releasing in December this year.
