In a surprising twist, the entertainment world was abuzz with news of Triptii Dimri’s alleged casting opposite Kartik Aaryan in the highly anticipated Aashiqui 3, produced by Mukesh Bhatt. However, a recent interaction with Bhatt has unveiled a different narrative, shattering the casting speculations.
Mukesh Bhatt’s Blunt Denial:
Mukesh Bhatt didn’t mince his words when confronted about the casting rumors, labeling them as “rubbish” and vehemently denying any closure on casting decisions. Bhatt emphasized that casting for Aashiqui 3 would only be considered once the script and music are ready for production.
“Unacceptable” Exploitation:
Expressing his frustration, Bhatt criticized the industry’s eagerness to capitalize on the success of the Aashiqui franchise. He stated, “Everyone wants to cash in on my popular Aashiqui franchise. This is unacceptable. I haven’t even met this lady,” pointing to the lack of authenticity in the casting reports.
Aashiqui 3’s Pivotal Elements:
Mukesh Bhatt clarified that, as of now, the only confirmed element for Aashiqui 3 is Kartik Aaryan. According to Bhatt, both Kartik and the music will play pivotal roles in the film, with further casting decisions on hold until the music is finalized.
Aashiqui Franchise Legacy:
The Aashiqui franchise, initiated by Mahesh Bhatt in 1990, has left an indelible mark on Bollywood. The first film launched Rahul Roy and Anu Agarwal, becoming a runaway musical hit. Aashiqui 2, directed by Mohit Suri in 2013, continued the legacy with Aditya Roy Kapur and Shraddha Kapoor. Aashiqui 3, under the direction of Anurag Basu, is poised to carry forward this musical tradition.
Mukesh Bhatt’s strong denial has added a layer of mystery to the Aashiqui 3 casting saga. With Kartik Aaryan and the promise of exceptional music leading the way, fans eagerly await further developments. As the industry watches closely, the authenticity of casting news remains a focal point, proving that in Bollywood, truth can be as intriguing as fiction.
