Sara Ali Khan to pair up with Varun Dhawan

While the ticket-paying audience is yet to see and decide how talented Sara Ali Khan is as a performer, Bollywood filmmakers seem to have already decided that she is going to be the next big thing in showbiz. At least, the speed at which she is being offered new projects shows so.

After her yet-to-be-released films Kedarnath and Simmba, we hear that the newcomer has been offered a new film by none other than David Dhawan and that too opposite his superstar son Varun Dhawan.


Yes, buzz has it that David Dhawan, along with sons Rohit Dhawan and Varun Dhawan, is set to launch a new production house. The first film which they are looking at making under the banner will be the next instalment in the popular N0. 1 series, which helped senior Dhawan establish himself as the numero uno king of comedies in the 90s.

Spilling some more beans on the project, a source says, “It’s a family banner that they plan to launch and is in the initial stages of planning. It will be headed by David and the first film will be a commercial action-comedy.”

While we await an official announcement on this project, Sara Ali Khan is busy wrapping up her debut film Simmba, opposite Ranveer Singh. Produced by Karan Johar and Rohit Shetty, the movie enters cinemas on 28th December.
