Karan Johar is producing the film. South icon Mammootty's son, Dulquer, was seen in the Irrfan Khan-starer Karwaan earlier this year. He also features in The Zoya Factor, which has Sonam Kapoor as a co-star. There's buzz that Karan has also pencilled him for another Dharma production. Is he KJo's new blue-eyed boy?
Janhvi Kapoor will be awarded 'Arets Stjerneskudd' rising talent of the year by the Norwegian Consulate General on December 10.
"I made my debut with 'Dhadak' this year. Our film has been seen by audiences across the globe since it released worldwide and many of them including people staying in Norway have seen the film and sent their good wishes via social media. This recognition is a pleasant surprise. I am happy to receive this honour and humbled that they chose me for this honour," she said in a statement.
