The girl is from Ghai&#39;s acting school Whistling Woods. Ghai, who turns 68 Thursday, said: &quot;After nine months of hunt I have finalised the hero and the heroine of my film &#39;Kaanchi&#39;. The hero is Kartik Tiwari and a new girl from West Bengal, who is under training at Whistling Woods and Mukta Arts, plays the heroine. Rishi Kapoor and Mithun Chakraborty play stellar roles in the film.&quot; <img alt="Kartik Tiwari" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/jan/Kartik-Tiwari_1.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 445px;" /> Ghai is also excited about the music of &quot;Kaanchi&quot;. &quot;I have recorded three songs (composed) by Ismail Darbar and penned by Irshad Kamil. I am too excited about going on the sets in February. It is such a fabulous script with brilliant characters and great music,&quot; said the filmmaker. &quot;Kaanchi&quot; will release during the same week when Ghai&#39;s &quot;Karma&quot; was released in 1986. &quot; &#39;Kaanchi&#39; will release on August 15, 2013. Just wait and watch &#39;Kaanchi&#39;.&quot; While details of the film&#39;s plot are elusive, one learns that &quot;Kaanchi&quot; is akin to Raj Kapoor&#39;s &quot;Ram Teri Ganga Maili&quot;. It&#39;s an epic journey of a simple innocent girl into a world of corruption and heartbreak. Kartik Tiwari sounded understandably excited by the big break. &quot;Every newcomer dreams of working with Mr. Subhash Ghai. I am two films old. My second film &#39;Akaash Vani&#39; will release in two days. I am excited. And now to be a part of a film directed by Subhashji just makes the picture complete,&quot; said Kartik, who debuted with 2001 movie &quot;Pyaar Ka Punchnama&quot; It took the 24-year-old nearly two years to find his bearings in Bollywood. &quot;To be honest, there was no long line of producers at my door even after the good response to &#39;Pyaar Ka Punchnama&#39;,&quot; said the youngster and gives credit to his director Luv Ranjan for not letting him sign &quot;wrong films&quot;. &quot;I could have easily done that since I&#39;m not from the film industry and have no idea of the right and wrong moves. Because I held back, I am today doing a Subhash Ghai film. I can&#39;t wait to start &#39;Kanchi&#39;,&quot; says the newbie who admits he&#39;s single in spite of a huge fan-following among girls. &quot;I had a girlfriend. She left me when I became an actor. She couldn&#39;t bear to see me romance another girl on screen. Hopefully, after the release of &#39;Akaash Vani&#39;, I&#39;ll find a girl to romance for real.&quot;u00a0

Good things are happening to Kartik Tiwari - his second feature film "Akaash Vani" is coming out on Friday and Subhash Ghai has finalised him as the male lead of his new film "Kaanchi", in which a Bengali girl will play the title role.
