On
Wednesday
(June
23,
2021),
Kartik
Aaryan
announced
that
he
is
all
set
to
join
hands
with
Marathi
director
Sameer
Vidwans
and
producer
Sajid
Nadiadwala
for
an
epic
love
story
titled
Satyanarayan
Ki
Katha.
The
movie
marks
the
Bollywood
directorial
debut
of
Vidwans
who
is
known
for
helming
Marathi
movies
like
Double
Seat,
Time
Please,
Mala
Kahich
Problem
Naahi
and
Anandi
Gopal.
In
a
chat
with
Spotboye,
Sameer
Vidwans
was
all
praise
for
his
leading
man
and
said
that
he
wanted
only
Kartik
Aaryan
for
this
role.
He
was
quoted
as
saying,
"Satyanarayan
Ki
Katha
is
a
unique
moving
love
story.
It
will
bring
out
a
facet
of
Kartik
Aaryan's
talent
which
audiences
haven't
seen
so
far.
Kartik
is
an
immensely
talented
actor.
I
wanted
only
him
for
this
role."
Sameer
whose
last
outing
Anandi
Gopal
bagged
a
National
Award,
opened
up
on
his
Hindi
film
directorial
debut
and
said,
"I
am
nervous
and
anxious.
I
am
also
curious
to
know
where
the
journey
will
take
me.
I
have
been
working
on
the
script
of
Satyanarayan
Ki
Katha
with
my
writer
Karan
Sharma
for
almost
two
years.
When
I
narrated
the
script
to
Kartik
Aaryan,
he
was
most
excited.
Then
I
narrated
it
to
Sajid
Nadidawala.
He
too
loved
it.
It's
very
encouraging
to
see
such
huge
commercial
names
being
so
passionate
about
a
different
kind
of
love
story."
The
filmmaker
revealed
that
the
hunt
for
the
film's
leading
lady
is
on
and
added,
"The
female
lead
is
also
very
important.
We
are
looking
at
various
names."
Vidwans
further
shared
that
he
is
keen
to
kickstart
the
shooting
of
the
film
around
November-December
when
'love
is
in
the
air'.
Earlier
while
announcing
the
film
on
his
social
media
handle,
Kartik
had
said
that
he
feels
immense
pressure
and
responsibility
as
he
is
the
only
member
in
the
team
without
a
National
Award.
Besides
Satyanarayan
Ki
Katha,
the
actor
also
has
Dhamaka
and
Bhool
Bhulaiyaa
2
in
his
kitty.
