Kartik Aaryan is in advanced talks with Kill director Nikhil Nagesh Bhat for a mythological action-adventure film. Despite his last film underperforming, Kartik continues to attract exciting projects. Sources say he is thrilled by the subject, calling it commercial, novel, and appealing to both masses and classes. Talks are also underway with a major studio to produce and finance the film. Meanwhile, Kartik is preparing for two 2026 releases — Naagzilla, where he plays a shape-shifting nag, and an untitled musical directed by Anurag Basu.
