Arjun Reddy remake, the Hindi version of the popular Telugu blockbuster film is going to go on floors soon. While Shahid Kapoor was announced as the male lead long back, the makers were yet to finalise the leading lady of the film. after Tara Sutaria walking out of the project, Bollywood actress Kiara Advani has been roped in to play the role opposite Shahid. The MS Dhoni actress seems to be quite excited about the project. In an interview with BT, confirming the news, Kiara said, "Arjun Reddy has always been one of my favourite films. There are so many shades to the heroine's character. I'm very excited about this opportunity." After Tara Sutaria’s Exit, Shahid Kapoor to Romance THIS Actress in the Arjun Reddy Remake?

Kiara has had a pretty good year so far. With Lust Stories, she has definitely become a breakout star. So, getting her on board seems like the right choice. So, the ones who wondered if Janhvi Kapoor or Sara Ali Khan will come on board after Tara's exit from the remake, your assumptions were completely wrong all this while. Besides, it would be refreshing to see Shahid star opposite Kiara, as the duo will be pairing onscreen for the first time. Let's hope their chemistry creates some buzz.
