Aashiqui 3: Actor Kartik Aaryan is slated to star in the third instalment of the mega-hit movie Aashiqui, which will be released in theatres in 22 years. Anurag Basu, known for acclaimed films like Barfi, Ludo, and Jagga Jasoos, will direct the movie.
Rahul Roy and Anu Aggarwal starred in the 1990 original, which was produced by T-Series and Vishesh Films.
Director Mahesh Bhatt was in charge of the acting. Aashiqui 2, a legitimate box office hit starring Shraddha Kapoor and Aditya Roy Kapur, directed by Mohit Suri, brought the franchise back to life in 2013.
Variety claims that the franchise’s third instalment of the franchise will be a spiritual heir to the second.
Aashiqui 3 will include music composed by Pritam, who has collaborated successfully with Basu on films like Gangster, Jagga Jasoos, Barfi, and Life in a… Metro.
