One of the most powerful men in the Hindi Film industry who has his hands full with over half a dozen projects under his Dharma Productions banner will kick off his next project in May 2019.
Although Karan has already revealed about his directorial plan, not much has been known about the project besides the fact that it will not be similar to what he has explored so far. We know that Hindi moviegoers have been eagerly waiting to know more details of the film and hence, here we have come up with all major details of this much-talked-about Karan Johar directorial.
Karan’s next directorial will be a period movie set in the Mughal dynasty. It’s a two-hero and three-heroine film.

“Karan earlier wanted Ranbir Kapoor and Ranveer Singh to play brothers but Ranbir turned it down later. He had said yes first but then he changed his mind. Karan doesn’t know if he changed his mind because it’s a negative role or because he doesn’t want to do a two-hero film with Ranveer,” our source told us adding that the Ae Dil Hai Mushkil helmer is not finding any actor who would like to play the villain.
