Bollywood actor Kartik Aaryan will star in “Ladaku,” directed by Kabir Khan, with the film scheduled for a worldwide theatrical release in 2027. All outlets describe the project as a real-life or inspiring story and frame it as another collaboration between Aaryan and Kabir Khan following their earlier work together.

Context across the reports notes that “Ladaku” is also tied to Aaryan’s shift into production. NDTV says the film marks his debut as a producer under his banner, Dopamine Studios. Deadline adds further production context, including Birla Studios leading production, Kabir Khan Entertainment attached, and a specific worldwide release date.

While the core information is consistent—Aaryan starring, Kabir Khan directing, an inspirational real-life premise, and a 2027 theatrical rollout—sources vary on emphasis. NDTV focuses on the “reunion” angle and the inspiring nature, while Deadline highlights corporate production leadership and the exact global release timing.
