“Ashwathama has been put on the back burner but there is something that we are developing, which should go on floors by June/July. I promise to inform you guys once things are locked,” said Aditya, without getting into the details of the project. For those unaware, Dhar was planning to make the most ambitious superhero film, Ashwathama with Vicky Kaushal in the lead, but it has been put on hold in the post-pandemic world.

Yami Gautam, who is leading the political action thriller, Article 370, couldn’t hide her excitement about Aditya Dhar’s next directorial. “Believe me, that’s the only time I felt I wish I was a guy. I know the story and it’s a world that you have not seen before. Knowing the kind of creative force Aditya is, we have all the right to ask him to do completely different from URI. Being predictable or pattern has never been his thing and I am excited for what’s coming up next,” said Yami.
