Siddhant Chaturvedi confirms collaborating with Katrina Kaif

Horror comedies are doing wonders at the box-office. Buoyed up by the great success that such films have received in the recent past, almost every big production house has either announced a horror comedy or is planning to launch one soon.

Actor Siddhant Chaturvedi, who shot to overnight fame after the huge success of Gully Boy (2019), has just confirmed that he is also doing a horror comedy. The actor is collaborating with none other than Katrina Kaif on the project. The duo is working together for the first time. The project is expected to hit the shooting floor next year.

Siddhant in his recent conversation spilt some beans on his forthcoming projects, one of them being a horror comedy with Katrina Kaif. "There is a horror-comedy with Katrina Kaif that will happen by the end of the year,” said the actor. Produced by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani, the project will reportedly be helmed by Gurmeet Singh.

Talking about upcoming horror comedies that Bollywood is currently producing, Janhvi Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao’s Roohi-Afza is scheduled to hit screens on 17^th April, 2020. After the stupendous success of Stree in 2018, producer Dinesh Vijan is planning Stree 2, which may roll next year. Saif Ali Khan, Fatima Sana Shaikh and Ali Fazal’s Bhoot Police is also scheduled to release in 2020.

Meanwhile, newcomer Siddhant Chaturvedi has already started shooting for his next Bunty Aur Babli 2. Also starring debutante Sharvari, Saif Ali Khan and Rani Mukerji in lead roles, the film is being directed by debutant filmmaker Varun Sharma under the banner of Yash Raj Films.

Sid will next start working on Dharma Productions’ untitled film with Deepika Padukone and Ananya Panday. His untitled comedy with Katina Kaif will be his third outing with Excel Entertainment since he has already done Gully Boy and web-series Inside Edge with the banner.
