Dostana 2 announced, Kartik Aaryan and Janhvi Kapoor to play the lead roles

After Dostana, moviegoers have been waiting for the sequel to the film. While there were multiple reports about the sequel from the past few years, Karan Johar has finally officially announced Dostana 2. The movie will star Kartik Aaryan and Janhvi Kapoor in the lead roles and the makers will rope in a newcomer to play the other male lead.

Karan tweeted, “The return of the franchise with unlimited madness! @TheAaryanKartik, #Janhvi & a soon to be launched fresh face - making it the trio for #Dostana2, directed by @CollinDcunha. Watch out for the third suitable boy! @apoorvamehta18 @dharmamovies.”


Now we wait to know who this third suitable boy will be. We wonder if a star kid will be launched with Dostana 2. Well, let’s wait and watch.

While talking about the film, Karan said, “I am excited to take the Dostana franchise forward with Kartik and Janhvi, and can’t wait to create some desi boy-girl madness with them. This is Dharma Productions’ first film with Kartik and we are looking forward to working with him. We will also be introducing a new male lead, who will join the incredible talent at our production house. Collin D’Cunha also makes his directorial debut with Dostana 2.”

This will be for the first time when Kartik and Janhvi will be seen together on the big screen. While the first instalment was directed by Tarun Mansukhani, the sequel will be helmed by debutant director Collin D’Cunha. We wonder if Karan will rope in Abhishek, John and Priyanka for a cameo in the film.

Coming to other movies of Kartik and Janhvi, both the actors have some interesting projects in their kitty. Kartik will be seen in Pati Patni Aur Woh and he is currently busy with the shooting of Imtiaz Ali’s next with Sara Ali Khan. Janhvi has started shooting for RoohiAfza and will also be seen in Gunjan Malhotra biopic and Takht.

Budget halted economic growth, Bank of England warns

THE Bank of England has cautioned that the UK economy is stagnating, following measures introduced in chancellor Rachel Reeves’s budget. Businesses are reportedly responding to tax hikes and a higher minimum wage by cutting jobs and raising prices.

Andrew Bailey, the Bank's governor, revealed that growth forecasts for the final quarter of 2024 have been downgraded to "zero." He also stressed a cautious approach to reducing interest rates, which remain at 4.75 per cent, citing economic uncertainty. “We need to ensure we meet the 2 per cent inflation target sustainably,” Bailey said.
