Industry insiders suggest that Lakshya, Tiger Shroff, and Janhvi Kapoor may team up for an ambitious action drama under Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions banner. Though official confirmation is pending, Mid-Day reports indicate the project has been in quiet development.
According to sources cited by the publication, director Raj Mehta will helm the revenge-driven action thriller. “The film is in its final stage of prep and Raj plans to take it on floors by November,” an insider revealed. The report emphasizes the film’s unique angle: “It will be Tiger versus Lakshya. Both actors have shown their prowess in the action genre, and the film will benefit with them sharing screen space.”
The source added that Johar is drawn to this project’s emotional depth: “Karan has set his eyes on another story now, something that is more in his zone of drama and emotions. He is confident that Raj will blend masala with big-screen action well.”
Lakshya recently appeared in the Netflix series The Bastards of Bollywood, where he worked with director Aryan Khan. Speaking on Raj Shamani’s podcast, the actor praised Aryan’s directorial vision: “I meet very few people who make me think, ‘He has the power to change the world,’ and Aryan is one of them. He has immense willpower… He has that zeal, aggression, passion, and conviction that not every director has.” Following the show’s success, Aryan is reportedly taking a break.
Meanwhile, Tiger Shroff’s latest release, Baaghi 4, showcased his action expertise under director A Harsha’s guidance. The Sajid Nadiadwala production featured an ensemble cast including Sanjay Dutt, Shreyas Talpade, Harnaaz Sandhu, Sonam Bajwa, Saurabh Sachdeva, and Upendra Limaye.
