    After the success of 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2', Kartik Aaryan is the go-to choice for film-makers.
    Bollywood heartthrob Kartik Aaryan, who turned 32 on Tuesday (November 22), has earned his place in the top league of Hindi cinema.

    Aaryan came into the limelight after his 5-minute long monologue from 'Pyaar Ka Punchnama' went viral and the actor was praised for his dialogue delivery. With a massive fan following, the hitmaker has also become the best bet for most film-makers.

    After the box-office success of 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2', he is the go-to choice for sequels of blockbusters like 'Aashiqui' and 'Hera Pheri'. The actor has been signing several big projects in the coming year.

    On his 32nd birthday, here's a look at his upcoming projects.

    'Freddy'
    Aaryan is all set to amaze his fans in the upcoming thriller 'Freddy'.

    Helmed by Shashanka Ghosh and produced by Ekta Kapoor, 'Freddy' also stars Alaya F in the lead role. It is all set to stream exclusively on the OTT platform Disney+ Hotstar from December 2, 2022.


    'Shehzada'
    The 32-year-old will make a big screen appearance as a prince in 'Shehzada', opposite Kriti Sanon.

    Helmed by David Dhawan's son Rohit Dhawan, 'Shehzada' marks Aaryan and Sanon's second movie after 'Luka Chuppi'. It is the Hindi remake of the Telugu blockbuster 'Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo' which starred Allu Arjun and Pooja Hegde.

    It was earlier planned for a November 2020 release, but the pandemic changed the plans. The movie will now hit the theatres on February 10, 2023.


    'Satyaprem Ki Katha'
    The birthday boy will be seen in another love story - 'Satyaprem Ki Katha'. He will share the screen space with Kiara Advani in the musical romantic saga, directed by Sameer Vidhwans.

    Produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, the movie marks Kartik-Kiara's second on-screen collaboration after their blockbuster horror comedy 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2'. The film is slated to release on June 29, 2023.


    'Aashiqui 3'

    The project will be produced by Mukesh Bhatt's banner Vishesh Films in collaboration with Bhushan Kumar's T-Series.


    'Captain India'
    The actor is also gearing up for Hansal Mehta's net project 'Captain India'.

    Bankrolled by Ronnie Screwvala and Harman Baweja, the movie will reportedly revisit 'one of the most successful rescue operations in Indian history'.

    In the first look of the movie, Aaryan was seen dressed as a pilot.


    An untitled film
    Director Kabir Khan wants to deliver a blockbuster with Aaryan in his next untitled film.

    Produced by Sajid Nadiadwala under his banner Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment, the film will be based on a true story.

    The details of the project have been kept under wraps.


    'Hera Pheri 3'
    The 'King of sequels' may be a part of 'Hera Pheri 3'. Although Paresh Rawal, recently confirmed the news, an official confirmation from the makers is still awaited.
