If the industry buzz is to be believed, Kiara Advani has been roped in opposite Akshay Kumar for the Hindi remake of the Tamil horror comedy Kanchana (2011). There had been a great deal of speculation about who will team up with the Khiladi in the long-in-the-planning project. The two feature in Karan Johar's upcoming production, Good News.

After making her Bollywood debut with Fugly (2014), which was followed by MS Dhoni: The Untold Story (2016), things started looking up for Advani. She starred in the Netflix anthology, Lust Stories (2018), as well. KJo is said to have taken her under his wing and is mentoring her. The results are showing.
