Vishal Bhardwaj, the famous filmmaker, has made some changes to his upcoming movie. Originally, it was planned for Irrfan to star in the main role. But now, it’s all set to be seen through the eyes of Hussain Ustara.
In exciting news, Kartik Aaryan has been chosen to play the lead role in Vishal Bhardwaj’s long-awaited film about Don Hussain Ustara, previously known as Sapna Didi. This announcement comes from film journalist Rahul Raut’s recent post on his social media.
The New Role for Kartik Aaryan
According to the report, Kartik Aaryan is teaming up with Vishal Bhardwaj for a gripping thriller, produced by Sajid Nadiadwala. He’ll be portraying the character of Hussain Ustara, a fearless underworld figure who stood up against the notorious Dawood Ibrahim. Interestingly, this was the same project that Vishal Bhardwaj was once working on with the late Irrfan Khan and Deepika Padukone. The script has been adjusted, and now it will focus on Ustara’s perspective.
Production Details
The report also reveals when the filming will commence. It states, “The yet-to-be-named film will start shooting in September 2024.” However, the leading lady for the role of Ashraf Khan, also known as Sapna Didi, hasn’t been decided yet. Initially, Deepika Padukone was supposed to play this part.
