BH CORRESPONDENT, Mumbai: Who are the nation’s current sweethearts at the moment? Well, of course, Imtiaz Ali’s Love Aaj Kal pair Kartik Aaryan and Sara Ali Khan, who are playing Veer and Zoe in the V-Day release. In fact, the fans have given the cutest on-screen couple even a nickname — Sartik. And if Sara has created a buzz a few days ago with the announcement of her film Atrangi Re alongside Akshay Kumar and Dhanush, can Kartik be far behind?
On Sunday, Bollywood trade analyst Taran Adarsh took to Twitter to announce that Kartik— one of the brightest Bollywood stars of the millennial brigade — has teamed up with Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior director Om Raut for his next. Now, Kartik’s fans will be too overwhelmed because this is the actor’s first action movie. And that’s not all. It will be in 3D. Yes, you read that right.

Though it hasn’t be decided who will star opposite Kartik, Bhushan Kumar will produce this fast-paced action film. Now, it goes without saying that with Tanaji doing mammoth business at the box office (it has crossed Rs 260 crore), Raut is in demand in the Hindi film industry.
Meanwhile, Kartik in a statement has said that it’s been some time that he has been keen to do an action film and Kumar knew about it. And when the Luka Chuppi actor watched Tanaji, starring Ajay Devgn, Saif Ali Khan and Kajol, he was blown away by the spectacular visuals and narrative style. In fact, Kartik was spotted with Raut at the screening of Saif’s recently-released comedy film Jawaani Jaaneman.
“I’m super excited to be a part of his next film and can’t wait to start work on my first action movie,” said Kartik, who will soon be seen in Bhool Bhulaiya 2 and Dostana 2.
