Actor Kartik Aaryan has been finalised as the lead for the upcoming romantic drama 'Aashiqui 3' but makers are yet to lock on to the leading lady for this project. A while ago, actor Gulshan Devaiah had tweeted that he is up to take up the role of Kartik Aaryan's romantic interest. He had tweeted, “I offer myself for the position of “Leading Lady" Dhamaka kardenge dono bhai milke pichchar mey likhk ke le loh."

Talking about the offer in a recent conversation with Hindustan Times, the actor said, "The offer is still open. It is a serious offer. It will be really awesome, hum do bhai milke dhamaal karenge, bhadiya rahega (we brothers will rock, it will be amazing). Out of the box casting, no one will see it coming and everyone will be thoroughly entertained. Maan nahi raha koi meri baat (no one is listening to me), I am ready."

Talking about the challenges that might come while playing such a character, Gulshan said, "I am fine with playing a gay man but here I am offering myself to play a leading lady. Kartik is the leading man, Gulshan Devaiah should be his leading lady. Isn’t it a wonderful challenge? Being a straight guy, how do I convincingly play a pretty leading lady! It’s a joke. But if you think about it seriously, it’s a tough thing to pull off."
