Bhushan Kumar reveals that Kartik Aaryan-Triptii Dimri’s next to go on floors in July; opens up on Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s tweets: “I keep explaining to him, ‘Don’t bother. It’s benefiting Animal’”

Bhushan Kumar’s recently released film Srikanth has managed to do good business at the box office. The success of the Rajkummar Rao starrer has led to cheer in the industry and to celebrate it, Bhushan Kumar has been giving a series of interviews. In an interview with Zoom, he opened up on his next film, starring Kartik Aaryan and Triptii Dimri and directed by Anurag Basu.

The same team was earlier going to collaborate on Aashiqui 3. Bhushan Kumar, in this interview, clarified, “We are not making Aashiqui right now but we are working on another movie which we are starting in July. It’ll be directed by Anurag Basu.”

He further explained, “The name ‘Aashiqui’ is not there for this film. When we were making Aashiqui 3, it was not working out. So, now we are making another romantic movie which Anurag dada is directing. Kartik and Triptii are a part of it.”

Interestingly, Kartik Aaryan and Triptii Dimri are also working together in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3. The horror comedy is on floors and is also produced by Bhushan Kumar. The veteran producer and Triptii earlier collaborated on the 2023 blockbuster Animal, directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga. The Ranbir Kapoor-starrer was loved by a section of the audience but a chunk of the moviegoers slammed it heavily for its theme and certain dialogues. Sandeep’s explosive interviews and headline-grabbing tweets added to the controversies.

Bhushan Kumar stated, “So many debates keep happening over the film. Even today, I see somebody or the other talking about it. It’s good for us. The moment people resume talking about it or making jokes, it picks up on Netflix again. It comes back in the top 10 list!”

When asked if he was okay with the jokes and memes on Animal, Bhushan Kumar replied, “Yeah, absolutely. Sometimes, my director is not and he replies too much! I keep explaining to him, ‘Don’t bother. It’s benefiting our film’.”

He also remarked, “All said and done. Animal has become a cult film. Everybody is waiting for the second part. We have done Rs. 900 crores of gross business worldwide. Hence, if people want to talk, let them do so. It doesn’t bother us.”

After Animal, Bhushan Kumar and Sandeep Reddy Vanga will join hands for Animal’s sequel, Animal Park, Spirit with Prabhas and a film with Allu Arjun.
