As per reports, Alia Bhatt will not star in the upcoming installment, Dulhania 3. The makers of the movie have brought Janhvi Kapoor on board to play the lead opposite Varun Dhawan.

The director has planned for Dulhania 3 to have a different storyline and characters, with no connection to the previous movies. It will follow a similar approach taken with Badrinath Ki Dulhania (2017). The movie has already commenced pre-production and is slated to begin filming in the coming months.

Varun Dhawan will commence shooting for Dulhania 3 after completing Atlee’s Theri remake. The actor will shoot for the movie alongside his father David Dhawan’s untitled comedy flick, scheduled to go on floors in April.

As for Janhvi Kapoor, the actress has several movies in the pipeline, after which she will begin shooting for Dulhaia 3. She will appear alongside Tiger Shroff in Rambo, as well as in Spider with Sidharth Malhotra and Ulajh with Gulshan Devaiah. She has already wrapped up her shoot for Mr and Mrs Mahi. The actress will also be making her Telugu debut in Devara.
