The Title of Kartik Aaryan, Sreeleela's Romantic Drama With Director Anurag Basu Revealed

Mumbai, October 8 - Bollywood heartthrob Kartik Aaryan and actress Sreeleela teamed up for director Anurag Basu's musical romantic drama film. The film was originally supposed to be titled Aashiqui 3, but the makers dropped the idea due to copyright issues. The movie has gone through some changes. According to the latest reports, the movie is currently being reshoot for a major portion. It is said that 10 days' worth of scenes that were already shot have been completely scrapped. Meanwhile, the film has reportedly been titled Tu Meri Zindagi Hai. It has been taken for the title song of the Aashiqui film. "When choosing the title, it was a pre-emptive move by the makers to avoid making a direct reference to Aashiqui. The team wanted a name that evoked nostalgia but didn't risk legal or creative complications. Tu Meri Zindagi Hai felt like the perfect fit", says the report by Mid-Day. Aashiqui has been a cult franchise, but due to creative differences between producer Bhushan Kumar and Mukesh Bhatt before they parted ways, the makers can't use the same title as the film. But the makers feel that Tu Meri Zindagi Hai fits perfectly while avoiding legal complications. "It's a classic love story with Basu's signature treatment of the genre. With the release more than six months away, it gives the team time to weave in some additional tracks. The latest schedule is underway in Mumbai, and the film will be shot till 2025-end, with patchwork spilling on to early 2026", the report added. Produced by T-Series, Tu Meri Zindagi Hai will hit the big screens on May 1, 2026. Stay tuned...

Kartik Aaryan, Sreeleela's Untitled Love Story With Director Anurag Basu To Be Postponed?

Mumbai, May 29 - Bollywood heartthrob Kartik Aaryan and director Anurag Basu have teamed up for the first time for an untitled musical love story film. The film, which was originally supposed to be titled Aashiqui 3, features Sreeleela as the female lead, also marking her Bollywood debut. ## The film was announced earlier this year with a Diwali 2025 release date. However, according to the latest report by The Hollywood Reporter India, the love story is set to be delayed to a new date, possibly to 2026. ## It is said that Anurag Basu has completed 40% of the total shoot of the film after it went on floors in March this year. Kartik, meanwhile, recently started filming for Dharma Productions' "Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri," while Basu is also busy in the post-production of his next, "Metro... In Dino,". ## Given the current commitments of both Kartik and Basu, the report states that the next schedule of their film is likely to kick off in August this year, and this makes things difficult to ready the film by October, which means the film is unlikely to be released on Diwali this year. ## THR India reports that the makers are likely to look for a Valentine's Day 2026 release, however, that date is also impossible as Kartik Aaryan's "Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri" is already scheduled for February 13, 2026, release. ## Meanwhile, with the postponement of Kartik's film is certain, Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna's "Thama" with Maddock Films is set to get a solo release this Diwali. ## Stay tuned...
