Kartik Aaryan inks a three-film deal with Eros International

There is no denying the fact that Kartik Aaryan has solidified his position as one of the most bankable actors from the current crop. The actor, who shot to overnight fame after the huge success of filmmaker Luv Ranjan’s comic-caper Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety (2018), has been consistently proving his worth over the past few years.

Aaryan already has his plate full with several high-profile projects. And if the latest buzz regarding a lucrative deal that he has just struck with a leading production house is to be believed, his diehard fans should rejoice as their favourite actor is set to leave several of his contemporaries far behind in terms of remuneration.


According to a report, Kartik Aaryan has inked a three-film deal with Erose International for a whopping amount of ₹75 crores (£79,57,687.50). A source close to the development informs the publication, "Kartik has signed a three-film deal with Eros International. He is being paid to the tune of ₹75 crore for the same. He used to previously charge to the tune of ₹6-8 crore for a film, but with this, he has catapulted into the big league where he is getting ₹25 crore (£26,52,430.18) per project. Details of the films and the directors helming them are not known because it is still not decided. But Kartik will definitely do three films under the banner.” However, the team at Eros International has denied the news.

On the work front, Kartik Aaryan currently has Dharma Productions’ Dostana 2 and T-Series Films’ Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 at various stages of development. Buzz has it that the talented actor has also been locked to headline the Hindi remake of superhit Telugu film Ala Vaikunthapuramaloo (2020), which will be helmed by Rohit Dhawan for Cine1 Studios. The makers are yet to announce the project officially.

TroyBoi returns to his Indian roots with Rootz EP using Lata Mangeshkar’s voice to redefine British diaspora music

Highlights:

  • TroyBoi’s five-track EP Rootz is a personal return to the sounds of his childhood, released via Ultra Records in September 2025.
  • The single Kabhi uses an officially cleared sample of Lata Mangeshkar’s vocal from Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham.
  • Collaborations with Amrit Maan, Jazzy B and BombayMami plug Punjabi, Bhangra and south-Asian textures directly into modern trap and bass production.
  • This EP is part of a wider wave: British artists born into diasporas are using heritage not as garnish but as foundation.

Some albums hit you in ways you don’t see coming. Rootz is one of them. Not just another trap EP. TroyBoi, the London-born producer known for global bass and trap, has made something that’s also deeply personal. He didn’t just want to make music that bangs in clubs; instead, he wanted to reach back to the India of his childhood. And he did it with Rootz.

The track everyone’s talking about is Kabhi. Because it’s not just sampling Bollywood. Lata Mangeshkar’s voice was officially cleared for use on a non-Bollywood release, a milestone reported by multiple outlets. It’s history. It’s memory. And it’s a bridge.
