MUMBAI: The rupee strengthened by 8 paise to Rs 45.76 against the US dollar at the Interbank Foreign Exchange market in the morning trade today, track

Alia Bhatt, youngest daughter of the prominent director-producer Mahesh Bhatt and Soni Razdaan is all set to mark her dream debut in Bollywood with a Karan Johar film. Also, the movie will star two other newcomers, David Dhawan's son, Varun and Sidharth Malhotra and will be co-produced by Shahrukh Khan.

Initially, Karan was to only produce the film, but he has now decided to direct the film as well. In fact, this will be the first time that Karan himself will be directing a film with all newcomers.

Rumor has it that the talented 17-year-old starkid will soon enter Bollywood with Karan Johar's yet untitled love-triangle, opposite Varun Dhawan.

Karan to launch Alia Bhatt?
While Mahesh Bhatt's elder daughter with Razdaan, Shaheen chose writing as her career, Alia had been wanting to act since two years and her father's production company, Vishesh Films had been waiting for a suitable project to launch her.

A source close to the unit revealed, “But Bhatt’s production house ,Vishesh Films, kept her under wraps and she was hardly seen at Bollywood functions.

“After signing Varun and Sidharth, Karan was looking for a third promising newcomer, until he found talent in Alia and called her for auditions.”

“The couple’s chemistry was unbeatable. Alia was also auditioned with Siddharth because Karan is making this film with a love triangle.”

Interestingly, Varun and Sidharth have earlier assisted Karan in 'My Name Is Khan'. Although no formal announcements have been made till now, sources reveal that SRK too might do a cameo in the film.

Given it's a Karan Johar movie, and King Khan his lucky mascot, lets see if the movie recreates the magic of 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai'.

When contacted, daddy Mahesh Bhatt said, “This is something that only the production houses concerned can answer. I cannot trespass into their domain. As far as I am concerned, Alia is still studying.”
