Karan Johar and Rohit Shetty, who will be coming together for the first time to co-judge an acting talent hunt, India’s next Superstar, will also be co-producing a film next. Not only that, it will also be the launchpad of the winner of the reality show, says a source. “Earlier, the winner was to get launched by Karan’s production house with whom there would be a three-film deal, but now it has changed. Karan and Rohit, who have been bonding during the promo shoot, have now decided to collaborate on a film and launch the winner.” The show is set to go on air in January next year.

Meanwhile, Karan Wahi and Rithvik Dhanjani were roped in as the hosts of the show, but now we hear the makers are having second thoughts. Says a source, “Both Karan and Rithvik haven’t yet signed the contracts. They are dilly-dallying over the dates, but the makers want to close the deal soon. So, they have started approaching other celebrities like Rajeev Khandelwal, Maniesh Paul and Mansi Parekh.”
