After much speculation, it has now been revealed that the much-awaited sequel of Dostana will star Kartik Aaryan and Janhvi Kapoor. The third lead in the film will be a newcomer and the makers are yet to announce the name of the actor.

Producer Karan Johar said in a statement, “I am excited to take the Dostana franchise forward with Kartik and Janhvi, and can’t wait to create some desi boy-girl madness with them. This is Dharma Productions’ first film with Kartik and we are looking forward to working with him. We will also be introducing a new male lead, who will join the incredible talent at our production house. Collin D’Cunha also makes his directorial debut with Dostana 2.”

Dostana released in 2008 and starred Priyanka Chopra, Abhishek Bachchan and John Abraham. The film was set in Miami and revolved around two male friends who pretend to be gay to get an apartment on rent. The film also starred Kirron Kher, Boman Irani and Bobby Deol.
