The actor plays the lead role in Akhtar’s next production venture Kho Gaye Hum Kahan, which also stars Siddhant Chaturvedi and Ananya Panday in prominent characters.

As the cast gears up to begin preparation for the film, Gourav recently spoke about collaborating with Akhtar on Kho Gaye Hum Kahan. The actor said, “Zoya Akhtar has the knack for writing characters that are every actor’s dream. She is a dynamic director who is redefining cinema. Her narratives are refreshing, and the perspective she brings forth through her cinema is thought-provoking.”


Gourav said that he is also looking forward to working with his co-stars Siddhant Chaturvedi and Ananya Panday. “It is great to have co-actors who have the same hunger as you. I hope in creating this film, we learn a lot together,” he concluded.
