What's next for Kiara and Kriti?
Kiara will be seen romancing Kartik Aaryan in 'Satyaprem ki Katha'. She has 'RC 15' alongside Ram Charan. The film billed as an action drama with current-day politics, features an ensemble cast, with Kiara playing the female protagonist.
Talking about Kriti Sanon, she is reuniting with Tiger Shroff after Heropanti for dystopian action film Ganapath. The film is all set to release around Dussehra on October 20, 2023, in five languages, including Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam and Telugu. Pooja Entertainment presents 'Ganapath' in association with Good Co. Directed by Vikas Bahl, the film is produced by Vashu Bhagnani, Jackky Bhagnani, Deepshikha Deshmukh, and Vikas Bahl.
On the other hand, she was recently seen in Shehzada with Kartik Aaryan. Directed by Rohit Dhawan, the film failed to perform at the BO. Shehzada is an official Hindi adaptation of Allu Arjun's Telugu blockbuster Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo that released in 2020. Since the majority of the people have already watched Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo, it appears that Shehzada is not the first choice for cinemagoers.
