After celebrating the runaway success of Drishyam 2, director Abhishek Pathak has dived back into work. It is heard that for his next, the director is likely to reunite with Kartik Aaryan, over seven years after Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2 (2015), which had Pathak serve as a producer. This time around, the two are planning to collaborate on a romantic drama.

Sources tell us that Pathak, along with his team of writers, is developing three concepts—a sci-fi movie, a romantic drama, and a thriller. A source reveals, “The sci-fi story will take some time to be developed, and Abhishek is not too keen to helm another thriller right after Drishyam 2. The romantic drama has piqued his interest, and he has begun talks with Kartik for the project. It will be exciting to see Abhishek direct the actor, as they have come a long way since their Punchnama days.

Both are hard-working, passionate and have similar creative instincts. It’s only a matter of time before they team up.” Pathak is apparently also keen to revive Pyaar Ka Punchnama series with the third instalment that will be helmed by Luv Ranjan and fronted by Aaryan.
Pathak remained unavailable for comment.
