Mumbai, June 16 (IANS) Actress Kiara Advani has been roped in by Aditya Chopra for the spy thriller 'War 2' starring Hrithik Roshan and NTR Jr.
A source said: "Kiara Advani fits the bill to the T as far as YRF Spy Universe and 'War 2' is considered. The YRF Spy Universe is a league of all-time blockbuster films like 'Ek Tha Tiger', 'Tiger Zinda Hai', 'War' and 'Pathaan', and the expectation from each movie coming out from this franchise is sky high.
"Look at the superstars who have graced this Universe. It's the most coveted film Universe in India that stars the biggest superstars of the country. Kiara is right now at the top of the heap and Aditya Chopra taking her for 'War 2' loudly signifies that."
The source also said that 'War 2' right now has the 'hottest' cast.
"You have three superstars like Hrithik Roshan, NTR Jr and Kiara Advani in the film! Then you have the brightest young director of the country, Ayan Mukerji, directing 'War 2'! Aditya Chopra is going all out to make this film the coolest action entertainer that this country has ever seen. It will be really exciting to see Kiara in this Universe and how Ayan and Adi present her in 'War 2'."
The biopic will see Sushmita in multiple shades, in a never seen before avatar. Sushmita will be fronting the biopic whose rights have been acquired by Mansi Bagla of Mini Films and ace photographer Subi Samuel's Bungalow No 84.
The film centers on wanna-be South Asian American rapper, Vinny (Potula), who along with three friends - all of them first-time thieves - plans to rob a grocery store owned by his ex-girlfriend's father, in order to steal her wedding diamonds and disrupt her pending engagement.
The film is a neo-noir crime-drama thriller directed by Vasan Bala, who has earlier made films like 'Peddlers' and 'Mard Ko Dard Nahi Hota', and has served as Anurag Kashyap's associate on his films in the past. The team of 'Monica, O My Darling' joined Films Day and spoke to the audience about working together, the unique genre and what went behind the making of the film.
Directed by Sameer Vidwans, 'Satyaprem Ki Katha' brings Kartik and Kiara together for the second time after the blockbuster 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2'. Details related to 'Satya Prem Ki Katha', which also marks a collaboration between NGE and Namah Pictures, are still kept under wraps.
The teaser gives viewers a sneak peek into the action-packed story that has an universal appeal. The one-minute-46-second-long visual teaser from the film makes for a wholesome tease into the world of Vikram Vedha.
