He further added that he is excited to star and begin shooting for his first action project.
"I have been keen to do an out-and-out action film for a while now, and Bhushan Kumar knew about it. Recently, I watched Tanhaji and was completely blown away, not just by the spectacular visuals, but also the narrative. Om Raut’s vision, when it comes to storytelling using 3D, is amazing. I am excited to be a part of his next and can’t wait to start work on my first action film," Kartik told.

Bhushan, who has been associated with Kartik's past films like Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety and Pati, Patni Aur Woh, said the Om directorial will be mounted on a large scale and will be the actor's most expensive film so far.
“Right from SKTKS and PPAW to Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, it’s been a long, successful association with Kartik. Though he has been successful in the romance and comedy space, he has always wanted to diversify and do an action film. Om’s vision and passion for cinema, which I saw in Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior, made me want to back his next project as well. The action in that film was in a different zone, while this one will be more on the lines of movies like Dhoom and War. It’s our first film of this kind and will be a fast-paced movie revolving around a heist. The film will be made on a huge scale and will be Kartik’s biggest budget film so far," Bhushan added.
Om, who is currently riding high on the success of Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior starring Ajay Devgn, Saif Ali Khan and Kajol, added that right from the initial stages of the film, he believed Kartik would be a perfect fit and is glad that he cam
