Kartik is currently busy filming Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri, a romantic drama directed by Satyaprem Ki Katha’s Sameer Vidwans. Co-starring Ananya Panday, the film is slated to release on February 13, 2026. Their previous outing Pati Patni Aur Woh had stirred up fan interest, and the buzz around this Valentine’s Day release is already building.

Taking to his Instagram handle, Karan Johar shared the motion poster and wrote, “Insanon wali picharein toh bahut dekh li, ab dekho naagon wali pichchar! #NaagZilla – Naag lok ka pehla kaand… Funnn phailaane aa raha hai – Preyamvadeshwar Pyare Chand… Naag Panchami par aapke nazdeeki Sssssinemas mein – 14 August 2026 ko!”

Kartik Aaryan’s Recent Controversy:
Kartik Aaryan has officially distanced himself from an Independence Day event in the US that sparked backlash from the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE). The actor’s team released a statement clarifying that he has no connection to Azadi Utsav – The Indian Independence Day, an event allegedly organised by a Pakistani-owned restaurant in Houston. The controversy began after FWICE raised objections to Kartik’s reported participation in the event, sharing a poster that featured him as a guest. In its letter addressed to the actor, the federation expressed “deep concern” and urged him to withdraw from the programme.
Kartik’s team has now clarified the actor’s stance, “Kartik Aaryan is not associated with this event in any capacity. He has never made an official announcement about participating in this event. We have contacted the organizers and requested to remove all promotional materials featuring his name and image.”
The federation’s letter read, “It is with a sense of deep concern and responsibility that the Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) brings to your notice a matter involving your scheduled participation in an event titled Azadi Utsav – The Indian Independence Day to be held in Houston, USA, on 15th August 2025. As per the attached poster, you are being featured as the lead guest for this celebration.”
