Koffee With Karan 8: What Aditya Roy Kapur Said On Kartik Aaryan Headlining Next Aashiqiui

Aditya Roy Kapur said there is no chance of him being in Aashiqui 3, because his character died in the film

With each new episode, Karan Johar's Koffee With Karan never fails to serve a healthy dose of juicy gossip and entertaining moments with our favourite celebrities. Now, in the latest episode, KJo welcomed the dynamic duo, Aditya Roy Kapur and Arjun Kapoor. Aditya, who rose to fame with his 2013 film, Aashiqui 2, spilled some beans on the celebrity talk show about the third instalment of the movie, which will feature Kartik Aaryan in the lead role. Amid their casual banter, Karan Johar cheekily remarked, "K also reminds me of Kartik. I wanted to ask what it feels like when somebody else takes your franchise forward."

To this, Aditya Roy Kapur responded, "I think he is the perfect person to take the baton forward. There is no chance I could be in this because, in the second part, my character went for a long swim, from which he is not returning. So, I feel like it's great." Karan Johar chimed in, "Ya, because you technically died," to which Aditya agreed and humorously added, "I died. Where will I come back now? My spirit will come back." KJo laughed and quipped, "He'll haunt Kartik Aaryan." Aditya joined in, saying, "Ya. He's hovering over Kartik Aaryan. He is the villain." To wrap it up, the filmmaker remarked, "It's a good story, actually."
