Exclusive: Karan Johar to cast Harshvardhan Kapoor in his next?

He’s just one film old, but it looks like Harshvardhan Kapoor knows how to make headlines every now and then. Recently, the actor was in the news for throwing the Twitterati and the film industry into a frenzy with his rant over losing an award to a much-deserving Diljit Dosanjh for the latter’s performance in Udta Punjab. The actor is now in the news for his big ticket films after his disastrous debut in Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s Mirzya. Harsh is currently shooting Vikramaditya Motwane’s much-delayed project Bhavesh Joshi and if sources are to be believed, he may work in Karan Johar’s next film as well. A close source reveals, “It’s true that Karan has recently met Harshvardhan for a project and the talks are on, but nothing has been finalised as of now.”

Earlier, the actor’s name was also linked with director Sriram Raghvan’s untitled film but the director then went ahead with another actor. Among Harshvardhan’s many speculated projects is also Olympian Abhinav Bindra’s biopic, in which he may play the lead role.
