In a candid conversation about his forthcoming projects, the actor revealed that Coolie No. 1 is in works. On being asked who is going to be the leading lady in the movie, Alia Bhatt or Sara Ali Khan, the 31-year-old actor quipped, “I can’t do every film with Alia.” “You will know soon; I don’t want to say anything. But Alia and I are not working. We’ll do something later…we’ll give a little break to people because I think for everyone it’s like, ‘oh they are back together,’ the Sui Dhagga actor added. Alia an Varun made their debut with Student of the Year (2012) and worked together in Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania and Badrinath Ki Dulhania . Karan Johar’s multi-starrer project Kalank is their fourth venture together. Although there have been reports of Sara Ali Khan being roped in to play the female lead, an official confirmation is awaited.
