After winning Bigg Boss 18, actor Karan Veer Mehra has been the talk of the town. Fans were eagerly waiting to see what project he would pick next. Now, the wait is over Karan has announced his next big-screen venture: an untitled romantic action drama directed by Omung Kumar, known for acclaimed biopics. The film will also star Harshvardhan Rane, Sadia Khateeb, and Ipsitaa, promising a power-packed ensemble.
Choosing Quality Over Quick Fame
In a recent interview with ETimes, Karan opened up about his career choices post-reality TV success. He revealed that despite receiving numerous offers for music videos, brand campaigns, and more reality shows, he chose not to jump into anything immediately. “I didn’t want to jump on the bandwagon just for visibility,” he said.
Instead, Karan took time to introspect. “I realised that despite all the materialistic possessions, I wasn’t content. What made me happiest was performing,” he shared. This self-awareness led him to enroll in an advanced acting workshop, where his dedication caught attention. “Some clips from our sessions went viral, and soon after, casting agencies and production houses began reaching out,” he added.

The film, yet to be titled, marks a genre shift for Omung Kumar and is being backed by Zee Studios in association with Blue Lotus Pictures, Stark Entertainment, and Innovations India.
