Shahid Kapoor's brother Ishaan to star in Hindi remake of Sairat' alongside Jhanvi?

The young aspiring actor and his family are keeping mum on this subject.

Mumbai: It is no secret that Ishaan Khattar, brother of Shahid Kapoor, will soon join Bollywood but what is driving the rumour battalion crazy is the launch pad, which move will be Ishaan’s first?

Earlier, it was rumoured that Khattar will star in Karan Johar’s sequel to 2012 film ‘Student of the Year’. Speculations of him doing the desi version of ‘Fault in our Stars’ opposite another star kid, Saif Ali Khan’s daughter, Sara Ali Khan, were also doing the rounds.

But, according to hitlist, Ishaan will be launched by Karan Johar in the Hindi remake of Marathi superhit film ‘Sairat’ opposite Sridevi’s daughter Jhanvi Kpaoor.

In a recent interview with Dna, father Boney Kpaoor confirming the newsof his daughter joining Bollywood, said, “Yes, Karan has been talking to us about a film for Jhanvi and we’ve given consent. But we don’t know which project it would be. Since Karan has recently acquired the remake rights of ‘Sairat’ it is being presumed that our daughter would be launched in this project.”

A source from the industry was reported as saying, “The script is being modified to suit the Hindi audience. Karan is yet narrow down on a director."

Both Ishaan and his mother Neelima Azeem have refused to comment on the development as ‘it will be unfair to the makers’.

The 21-year-old has worked as an assistant in ‘Udta Punjab’ and was seen alongside his brother in ‘Vaah! Life Ho Toh Aisi’. Like Shahid, Ishaan has trained under Shiamak Davar for a year.
