Aayush Sharma who made a smashing debut in October 2018 with Salman Khan Films' LoveYatri is all set to play an army officer in his next, Kwatha. The film is being directed by Karan Butani.

Karan confirmed the news, saying, “It’s a real-life story and the title Kwatha comes from a place in Manipur, one of the last villages on the border of India and Myanmar. It’s a story about the army officer and the relationship he shares with this village.”

Karan who met Aayush while writing the film believes he’s a perfect fit for the character. “We clicked in the first meeting itself. Very few films have been made on the North East and it’s time that the rest of India and the world see how beautiful it is and the stories it has to tell,” he said.

Recce is underway and the film should roll in September. Aayush meanwhile is working on getting the body language of an army man right. “We don’t know about Kwatha but we will definitely shoot in the unexplored North East,” said Karan who’s currently looking for a leading lady to star opposite Aayush.
