Sanya Malhotra has a witty reply to rumours of being part of Vicky Kaushal-Tripti Dimri's Mere Mehboob Mere Sanam

Speculations were rife that Sanya Malhotra has been part of Karan Johar’s upcoming production venture, Mere Mehboob Mere Sanam. Directed by Anand Tiwari, the film featuring, Vicky Kaushal, Tripti Dimri, and Ammy Virk, is touted to be a romantic comedy. Recently, when the Dangal actress was asked if she is part of the project, she denied it with a witty answer.

“The only Mere Mehboob Mere Sanam I know is the Shah Rukh Khan song,” said Sanya in an interview with Etimes. Instead, she confirmed that she is very much part of Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan. “I’m very proud to announce that I’m part of the film. I still can't believe that I’m working in a film with Shah Rukh Khan. I think I will have to watch the film to believe it. And working with SRK has been like a dream come true,” she added. For the unversed, Jawan is an upcoming action drama helmed by Atlee which also stars Nayanthara and Vijay Sethupathi in pivotal roles.
