Ever since Sidharth Malhotra’s Aiyaary released, speculations have been rife about the actor’s future projects. We had already told you that he is doing the Vikram Batra biopic, which has now been titled Kargil: Sher Shah. He is also in talks for a film with Ekta Kapoor’s banner.
Sidharth had been offered Raj Kumar Gupta’s Most Wanted, too, that got pushed. The Raid director recently revealed that he will work on it now. However, the star has already opted out of it. Says a source, “Sid and Raj had a lot of meetings where they were tweaking the scripts. But the final draft didn’t work for the actor, so he politely declined the offer. Raj is now looking for another young face to do his film.”
Now, our source reveals, “Anees Bazmee has approached Sidharth for a solo lead in a rom-com. The two recently met at the latter’s office to discuss the script. The actor has liked the story.” Our khabri adds, “This is just the first round of discussions. Sidharth has not yet signed the film. He will sit for a proper narration and decide. Also, the modalities need to be worked out. So there won’t be an official announcement right away.”
The Mubarakan director has two more scripts apart from this movie. While one is Saade Saati, the other is a two-hero project.
