Pooja Entertainment denies the reports of offering Kartik Aaryan a three-film deal

Pooja Entertainment denies the reports of offering Kartik Aaryan a three-film deal

Kartik Aaryan is undoubtedly one of the most popular actors of this generation. He has been a part of successful films like Pyaar Ka Punchnama franchise, Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety, Luka Chuppi, and Pati Patni Aur Woh.

Recently, there were reports that Vashu Bhagnani of Pooja Entertainment has offered Kartik a three-film deal. However, the reports turned out to be untrue.


Pooja Entertainment shared the link of a news portal carrying the story and wrote, “No truth to this at all.” However, we are sure this isn’t affecting Kartik’s fans as the actor already has many interesting projects lined up.

Kartik will be seen in movies like Dhamaka, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, Freddy, and Sajid Nadiadwala's production venture. Directed by Ram Madhvani, Dhamaka will get a direct-to-digital release on Netflix. While the makers haven’t announced the release date officially, there were reports that the film will start streaming in October this year.

Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, which also stars Tabu and Kiara Advani, is slated to hit the big screens on 19th November 2021. The movie is being directed by Anees Bazmee.

Sajid Nadiadwala's production venture was earlier titled Satyanarayan Ki Katha. But, the makers have decided to change the title, and the new title is not yet announced.

There have been multiple reports about the film’s female lead. It was said that Shraddha Kapoor is being considered to star opposite Kartik, but later there were reports that Kiara has been roped in for the movie.

2025 Oscars: Halle Berry, Scarlett Johansson, and A-List stars set to present

The Academy has unveiled a star-studded line-up of presenters for the 2025 Oscars, adding even more glamour to Hollywood’s biggest night. Joining the previously announced 2024 winners—Emma Stone, Cillian Murphy, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, and Robert Downey Jr.—are A-listers like Halle Berry, Scarlett Johansson, Penélope Cruz, Whoopi Goldberg, and Amy Poehler.

Comedian Conan O’Brien will host the event, marking his first time leading the prestigious awards show. The telecast is expected to acknowledge the impact of the devastating wildfires that hit Los Angeles earlier this year. O’Brien has stated that he wants the show to strike a balance between honouring Hollywood’s biggest achievements and recognising the challenges the city has faced.



A new twist on the Oscars' “Fab 5” format will also be introduced this year. Traditionally, past winners present acting awards while sharing personal tributes about the nominees. However, due to controversy surrounding one of this year’s nominees, the format has been adjusted to spotlight behind-the-scenes talent instead.

The new presenters include Elle Fanning, John Lithgow, June Squibb, and Bowen Yang, adding a mix of Hollywood veterans and fresh faces to the stage. While the specific categories they’ll present remain under wraps, tradition suggests last year’s Best Actor winner, Cillian Murphy, will hand out the Best Actress award, and Emma Stone will return the favour for Best Actor.

Rumours are swirling about a potential opening performance by Wicked stars Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, both nominated for their roles in the highly anticipated musical. While Grande remained coy about the possibility, fans are already buzzing with excitement.

The Oscars will air live on ABC and stream on Hulu, with a red-carpet pre-show kicking off at 6:30 p.m. ET. As the countdown begins, the Academy promises more surprises and announcements in the coming weeks.

With a mix of Hollywood royalty, heartfelt tributes, and a touch of Conan O’Brien’s signature humour, the 2025 Oscars are shaping up to be a night to remember.
