Apart from Citadel, the Bhediya actor also has Bawaal in the pipeline. The movie also stars Janhvi Kapoor in the lead. Bawaal is being directed by Nitesh Tiwari.
On the other hand, Samantha was last seen in Shaakuntalam, co-starring Dev Mohan in the lead role. The movie failed to impress the audience, as evident from its Box Office numbers. She will also be seen in Kushi which also stars Vijay Deverakonda. Kushi will hit the theatres on September 1, this year.
