Chhaava director Laxman Utekar’s start to 2025 was what most filmmakers dream of. With the blockbuster behind him, the director is setting the stage for his next. This time, he is said to have gone back to the leads of his maiden Hindi directorial venture, Luka Chuppi (2019). We’ve heard that Kartik Aaryan, Kriti Sanon and Utekar may reunite for a hard-hitting love story, which will be backed by Dinesh Vijan.  

A source shares, “The story is currently being developed. It has the flavour of hinterland India that Laxman does so well, but this time he is exploring an intense subject, unlike Luka Chuppi that offered a light-hearted take on live-in relationships.”
