As we know that TV heartthrob, Parth Samthaan has quit Star Plus’ Kausautii Zindagi Kay for a big-ticket Bollywood film. After this interesting news, it was speculated that the actor is likely to debut into the filmy world with Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Gangubai Kathiawadi co-starring Alia Bhatt. But today we have an update on this, which says that Part will undoubtedly be seen in his debut film with Alia Bhatt but not in SLB’s film.

As per a report by a source, “Parth is definitely doing a film with Alia but it is not Gangubai Kathiawadi. Shantanu Maheshwari stars in the SLB directorial.”

Revealing about the film that Parth Samthaan signed, the source added. “But, Parth has signed Resul Pookutty’s Piharwa that also stars Alia. The film is based on the life story of martyr Harbhajan Singh and has the India-China war as its backdrop. The movie will have a romantic angle around Alia and Parth’s characters and will be set in two Eras.”

The source further told that the film, which supposedly was to go on floors this month, but the pandemic and the lockdown because of it, has thrown a spanner into it. Talking about the film’s shooting schedule, the source said, “Alia will first finish work in Gangubai Kathiawadi, Brahmastra and RRR. She also has to begin Karan Johar’s next directorial opposite Ranveer Singh early next year.”

Talking about Parth Samthaan and Alia Bhattstarring Piharwa of Resul Pookutty, the source said, “The movie needs a huge crew because it captures the war too. Resul is currently in touch with Alia and her team to lock the dates but Piharwa will definitely go on floors next year. Meanwhile, Parth will complete his web series and is also in talks to sign another digital show which might get complete before his Bollywood debut hits theatres.”
