According to the official X (formerly known as Twitter) social media post of film journalist Rahul Raut, Kartik Aaryan will be next seen in Vishal Bhardwaj’s upcoming new movie.

Kartik will play the role of Hussain Ustara, a fearless don who stood against the underworld’s most influential and wanted person, Dawood Ibrahim. The film, which is yet to be titled, will go on floors from September 2024. It is stated that it’s the same film that Vishal Bhardwaj was keen on making with Irrfan Khan and Deepika Padukone.
