The title of Kartik Aaryan’s upcoming sports drama, to be helmed by 83 director Kabir Khan, was unveiled on Tuesday. Titled Chandu Champion, the film eyes a release date on Eid-al-Adha in June next year.
Chandu Champion will also be Kartik’s second collaboration with producer Sajid Nadiadwala after the recent Satyaprem Ki Katha. Although the film’s plot is still under wraps, director Kabir Khan, in an earlier interview, had revealed that Chandu Champion will be about an “unknown hero.”
The film is reportedly based on a real-life story. Earlier, reports stated that the makers were supposed to do the film with Ranveer Singh but things didn’t work out and they zeroed in on Kartik for the role.
