Kartik Aaryan in `Satyanarayan Ki Katha`
Producer Sajid Nadiadwala announced, on Wednesday, that Kartik Aaryan has been roped in to play the lead role in their upcoming film, billed as 'a soulful musical love saga', titled âSatyanarayan Ki Katha'. Co-produced by Namah Pictures and Sajid's banner Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment, the film will mark the first collaboration between Kartik Aaryan and Sajid Nadiadwala while it will be directed by National award-winning director Sameer Vidwans.

I'm extremely happy that I am a part of Sajid Sir, Shareen and Kishor's vision. Satyanarayan Ki Katha is a musical love saga that brings together a powerhouse of people who are National award-winning names. It's also a first for me with Sameer Vidwans sir who has an astute sense of making sensitive topics highly entertaining."

"Honestly, I feel immense pressure and responsibility, since I am the only member in this team without a National award," adds Kartik in his signature cheeky style.
The project will also mark a massive collaboration between NGE and Namah Pictures, the co-producers on the project. Interestingly, Sajid Nadiadwala and Namah Pictures & director Sameer Vidwans won a National Award for their respective feature films - Chhichhore (best feature film) and Anandi Gopal (best film on social issues) - in the same year, 2019. 'Satyanarayan Ki Katha' will mark Sameer's foray into Bollywood.
Namah pictures' Shareen Mantri Kedia says, "SNKK is a unique love story that makes you want to believe in the power of love. The story embellished with Kartik's innocent charm will win everyone's hearts."
Kishor Arora adds, "We at Namah are happy to collaborate with a creative force like Sajid Nadiadwala in bringing this heartwarming tale to the audiences. Sameer Vidwans, who is known for deft handling of emotions is an apt choice to capture the myriad of emotions etched on paper by Karan Sharma."
'Satyanarayan Ki Katha' is all set to go on floors towards the end of this year.
