Kartik and Ananya seem to share a passionate kiss in the photo shared by Karan. However, their lips were covered with a passport, hinting at the film's premise.

Kartik Aaryan says he'll faint if he experiences anything supernatural
Kartik Aaryan, fresh off horror comedies like 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2' and the upcoming 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3', is set to star in 'Naagzilla', a fantasy-comedy. Aaryan claims he's never experienced anything supernatural and hopes to keep it that way. He recounted a time when his mother performed a ritual to ward off the evil eye during the success of his films. After tickling the audience's funny bones with back-to-back horror comedies Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 and the upcoming Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, Kartik Aaryan is now ready to step into an all-new fantastical world with Naagzilla, a fantasy-comedy where he is reportedly set to play a shape-shifting snake. As he ventures into yet another supernatural universe on screen, Kartik insists he has never encountered anything remotely eerie in real life—and wants to keep it that way. In an exclusive chat with ETimes, the actor revealed, "I have never experienced the supernatural, and I don't even want to, as it would be very problematic. While doing horror comedy, you can react for a long time, and you can show fear etc., but if it happens in reality, I will faint (laughs).' The actor, who has become a familiar face in genres that flirt with the mystical and bizarre, admitted that he draws a strict line between reel and real when it comes to the paranormal. When asked whether he believes in nazar (evil eye), Kartik shared a candid anecdote involving his mother. 'No, not really anything for nazar. But I remember back during Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 and Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety, I was falling ill regularly, so mummy ne woh mirchi ghuma ke jalayi thi. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No annual fees for life UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo Someone had told her that shayad nazar lag gayi hogi, as things had started going well for me. At times people do become superstitious—but hopefully not to that extent. My parents are doctors after all.' Still, despite the rational upbringing, the actor admits faith plays a role in his journey. 'Yes, we are religious. We go to temples for prayers. Like, we go to Siddhivinayak when something big is happening in life.' Kartik is amidst two films right now one is with Sreeleela , directed by Anurag Basu and the other being with Ananya Panday which has been titled as Tu Meri Mani Tera Main Tera Tu Meri.

‘Everyone sprang into action': Chaos and anxiety at Rajasthan hospital after school roof collapse
Outside the Intensive Care Unit at the S.R.G. Government Hospital in Jhalawar, Pahalwan Lodha sits anxiously, waiting for word on her 12-year-old niece, Aarti. Aarti is critical and Pahalwan is looking after her while her parents attend to a tragic business – laying to rest her 8-year-old brother Kartik. 'She's unwell and has trouble speaking. My sister and brother-in-law can't leave home,' Pahalwan says. 'Kartik was the only son among five sisters. I will be taking care of my niece till the funeral is complete.' Kartik was one of seven students who died when the roof of a government primary school collapsed in the district's Piplodi village. The incident occurred at 8:30 am, when students of the Government Higher Primary School gathered for morning prayers. Aarti studied in the same school, and was present when the roof collapsed, critically injuring her. Like her, 10 other students are critically injured, while 15 others sustained serious injuries. The funerals of the seven deceased children will be held in the Piplodi village Saturday. The incident led to protests and demands for compensation, prompting Rajasthan's Education Minister Madan Dilawar to announce Rs 10 lakh compensation and a job to one member of the deceased's family. The S.R.G. Government Hospital, where the critically injured students were admitted, has been unusually busy all day. The road outside the hospital was repaired, furniture and ceiling fans dusted and staff's holidays cancelled, all in an attempt to cope with the influx of VVIP guests — from Education Minister Dilwar to Jhalawar MP Dushyant Singh, and his mother and former chief minister of Rajasthan, Vasundhara Raje. There is also heavy police deployment outside, with only those with passes being allowed to enter wards. 'There was chaos in the hospital this morning. Everyone sprang into action,' one nurse said. 'Staff on night duty were asked to join immediately. Every hospital nurse, cleaning staff, and doctors were called to join duty. By 11 am, the road outside had been repaired.' But for parents Devi Lal Lodha and Lalita Lodha, neither the repaired road nor the clean ceiling fan matters, as they anxiously wait outside the ICU, watching for signs that their six-year-old son Murli would get better. Murli, who had a head injury and still has trouble recalling what happened, was to start school in August but their parents sent him there early 'to get him acquainted'. 'I dropped my son to school at 7 am and went to the fields as usual,' Lalita, a farm hand, says. 'Suddenly, my neighbour came running and asked me where my son was. Then she told me about the roof collapsing and I ran towards it,' she says. A few metres away, Badri Lal is furious. His 11-year-old son Milan is in the ICU and all Badri Lal wants is 'good medical facilities for my child and strict action against negligent officials'. Like others, Milan too doesn't remember what happened. 'All he could remember was opening his eyes and seeing that he was surrounded by people,' Badri Lal says. 'I nearly lost him.'

Triptii Dimri's BF Sam Merchant Reacts To Kartik Aaryan Meme Amid Saiyaara Buzz: 'Bhikhari Look…'
Triptii Dimri's rumoured boyfriend Sam Merchant reacted to a meme trolling Kartik Aaryan's look from his upcoming film. In the meme, he's compared to Ahaan Panday of Saiyaara. Triptii Dimri and Kartik Aaryan shared screen space in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, but when the actress didn't join the film's promotions, it sparked buzz about possible tension between the two. Soon after, reports of her not being part of Kartik's next film only fuelled rumours of a fallout. Now, a viral meme has brought that chatter back into focus. The post trolled Kartik's intense, scruffy look from his upcoming musical drama, comparing it to the surprise success of Saiyaara. The meme took a jab at Kartik's 'beggar look" and joked that Saiyaara ended up stealing the spotlight instead. The caption read: 'Bhai pura time bhikhari look mai hype banata reh gaya. Udhar Saiyaara ne baazi maar li." What really caught attention, though, was Triptii's rumoured boyfriend Sam Merchant dropping several laughing emojis in the comments section. While he didn't say anything directly, the timing of his reaction didn't go unnoticed by fans. Kartik's next film, a romantic musical directed by Anurag Basu and co-starring Sreeleela, has been generating interest for a while. Though initially expected to release around Diwali this year, it may face delays. The film, once linked to Aashiqui 3, has since taken on a new direction but remains untitled as of now. Meanwhile, Saiyaara has captured audiences with its emotional depth and music, drawing comparisons to earlier romantic dramas. With Triptii now out of the picture for Kartik's next, and Sam's cheeky online reaction making rounds, fans are left wondering whether there's more to the story than meets the eye. Triptii Dimri and Sam Merchant were recently seen vacationing together in Goa. Earlier, they were also spotted by their eagle-eyed fans in Finland, celebrating the New Year while enjoying the Northern Lights, amongst other trips. Additionally, Sam can often be seen cheering for Triptii at her various professional developments. For instance, when she was recently roped in Prabhas' starrer Spirit, the hotelier reposted her announcement post on his Instagram Stories alongside a few clapping emojis. Kartik Aaryan is currently busy with the shoot of Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri, while Triptii will start shooting for Spirit.
