But, Parth has signed Resul Pookutty’s Piharwa that also stars Alia. The film is based on the life story of martyr Harbhajan Singh. And has the India-China war as its backdrop.

Parth Samthaan to make his Bollywood debut with Piharwa:
Parth Samthaan to make his Bollywood debut by next year. The shooting of the movie was supposed to begin in December. But as we all know; the new strain of coronavirus has stalled all the plans. The source further adds, “Alia will first finish work in Gangubai Kathiawadi, Brahmastra and RRR. She also has to begin Karan Johar’s next directorial opposite Ranveer Singh early next year. The movie needs a huge crew because it captures the war too. Resul is currently in touch with Alia and her team to lock the dates, but Piharwa will go on floors next year. Meanwhile, Parth will complete his web series and is also in talks to sign another digital show which might get complete before his Bollywood debut hits theatres.”
