Reports Link Lakshya to Raj Mehta Actioner Opposite Tiger Shroff as He Reflects on Shelved Debuts

He says discipline carried him through stalled launches, with a big‑screen turn in Kill then a Netflix lead under Aryan Khan reviving his momentum.

Overview

  • Mid-day, citing production sources, reports Lakshya has signed a Dharma Productions revenge‑drama to be directed by Raj Mehta that would pit him opposite Tiger Shroff, with filming targeted to start in November.
  • Lakshya says the shelving of Dharma films Dostana 2 and Bedhadak left him feeling blank and numb, but he refused to blame anyone and kept training and preparing daily.
  • He recalls declining a post‑Porus television offer worth ₹20,000–25,000 per day to pursue a movie career despite years without releases.
  • Following those setbacks, he broke through with the action film Kill and then led Aryan Khan’s Netflix series The Ba***ds of Bollywood, later praising Aryan as a “damn good actor” and a determined director.
  • Separately, Vikrant Massey has been announced to headline Dostana 2 in place of Kartik Aaryan, with reports stating Lakshya remains attached in some capacity.
