]]> Mumbai | Kartik Aaryan’s film career continues to soar as he adds another exciting project to his lineup. The actor, currently finishing Anurag Basu’s romantic drama Tu Meri Zindagi Hai, is also preparing for the release of his upcoming romantic comedy with Ananya Panday titled Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri, produced by Karan Johar and scheduled to release on the last day of this year.Following these projects, Kartik has reportedly signed Ram Aur Shyam, which will mark his first film featuring a double role. The movie will be directed by filmmaker Anees Bazmee, with whom Kartik previously collaborated on the blockbuster Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2.

A Fresh Take on the Classic Double Role

Though neither the actor nor the director has officially commented on the film, sources close to the production have revealed that both share a strong working relationship and mutual respect built during their previous collaboration. Kartik had long been interested in exploring a double role, and Anees Bazmee was considered the ideal choice to write and direct the project.

The upcoming Ram Aur Shyam will reportedly be a comedy but will offer a unique approach to the genre, differing from earlier double-role classics such as Dilip Kumar’s Ram Aur Shyam, Rajesh Khanna’s Sachcha Jhootha, Shah Rukh Khan’s Duplicate, and Hrithik Roshan’s Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai.

Not a Remake of the 1967 Classic

Despite sharing its title with Dilip Kumar’s 1967 hit, the new Ram Aur Shyam is not a remake and will present an entirely original storyline. The film is expected to showcase Kartik’s versatility as an actor while giving audiences a fresh flavor of comedy under Anees Bazmee’s direction.

With a packed schedule and a series of diverse roles ahead, Kartik Aaryan continues to establish himself as one of Bollywood’s most dynamic and bankable stars.
