Karan Johar shares first posters of “Ittefaq”

Filmmaker Karan Johar shared three posters of the upcoming film “Ittefaq”, which stars Sidharth Malhotra and Sonakshi Sinha in lead roles and is directed by Abhay Chopra, the grandson of B.R. Chopra. It is a remake of the 1969 film of the same name starring Rajesh Khanna and Nanda.

Karan Johar captioned the first poster showing Sidharth Malhotra and what appears to be Sonakshi Sinha, which read, “Was it an #Ittefaq or not? Find out on NOV 3...”

He captioned the second poster showing Akshaye Khanna: “Only HE can divulge if it's an #Ittefaq or not!”

Finally, Johar captioned the third poster showing Sidharth Malhotra alone, which read, “There are some dark secrets we will unveil tomorrow #IThappenedonenight”

It was reported in February this year that Akshaye Khanna has been signed to play a negative character in the remake of BR Chopra's 1969 classic. The original “Ittefaq” was notable for being entirely songless. It only had Salil Chowdhary's background score.

“Ittefaq”, itself a remake of British film, “Signpost to Murder” (1964), revolved around an artist, who is accused of murdering his wife whom he had pushed in a fit of rage. He then spends the stormy night with a rich woman who harbours a dark secret of her own.

The film is slated to release on November 3.
