Talk about some exciting news! Karan Johar's impending project Shiddat (reportedly)starring Varun Dhawan, Arjun Kapoor and Alia Bhatt's Shiddat is likely to go on floors soon.Although initially Karan wasn't too convinced with the script where some had even speculated if the film is about to get shelved. But director Abhishek Verman is said to have reworked on a fresh draft and is now confident enough to begin shooting within the next few months. A source close to the production house informed Mirror, "Abhishek is fine-tuning the script at the moment and will be presenting the final draft to Karan in a week's time. Casting is underway. Contrary to rumours, the film is not on the backburner now. Karan didn't want to go ahead without the perfect script but things seem to be working out now. The film is expected to go on the floors in the coming months." Also read: This is what Varun Dhawan has to say about Alia Bhatt and Arjun Kapoor being in Shiddat!
However from the little that we know, although Alia and Varun were always confirmed for Shiddat but Arjun was said to be still mulling over his decision as a source reasoned, "Shiddat is a period drama set against Partition-era Lahore. It is a love triangle between the three actors, but with unequal roles. Arjun plays the good guy, while Varun plays the anti-hero, which obviously is a better-sketched character with more layers to him. The anti-hero usually gets accolades and audience appreciation and that is Arjun's dilemma. He doesn't want to be overshadowed by Varun's character. He has asked the makers to make some changes in his role and get back to him. While he is interested in the role, he wants more depth to his character to make it stronger."
Now the finalising of casting depends on Arjun's nod. "Abhishek is very keen to get Arjun on board as they are great buddies and the director feels he suits the role the best so he has been trying to persuade him. Arjun always goes for the role and never the cast. If he hops on board it will mean a great casting coup as Arjun, Alia and Varun have never worked together, " revealed the source.
While Varun is currently gearing up for his entertaining rom-com Badrinath Ki Dulhania with Alia Bhatt. Arjun recently wrapped up the shoot of Half Girlfriend' co-starring Shraddha Kapoor. Keep watching this space for more updates on this hot story.

"Arjun does not want to be overshadowed by Varun ..."
However, Arjun Kapoor is behind Varun Dewan (and Ranveer Singh) at this time, so is likely to be overshadowed by both of them for several years. Fortunately for him, he is still young by Bollywood standards, so may hope to improve his position.
NOTE: these three first met in 2013, at Sonam Kapoor's Party For Arjun And Ranveer. 2nd Note: Alia was also at that party, but Sonakshi and Aditya were not.
