Mahesh Bhatt predicts 'glorious future' for Gaurav Arora

Even before the release of his debut film "Love Games", Gaurav Arora has been roped in for "Raaz 4" along with Emraan Hashmi. And veteran filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt feels he is a star in the making, ready to soar high in showbiz.

Gaurav, who has walked the ramp as a model and featured in a slew of TV commercials, will be making his Bollywood debut with "Love Games". Directed by Vikram Bhatt, "Love Games" is an urban thriller and will release on April 8.

"I think Gaurav has all the attributes of being a long distance runner. He is a person who is going to be fed in the landscape of ours, soaring from strength to strength because he has the looks. He has the talent and the willingness to give it all," Mahesh said in a statement.

Mahesh also asserted that Gaurav has got a good start.

"He has made a spectacular beginning with a great role under Vikram Bhatt and I think with 'Raaz', he is only going to add to it. I see a glorious future. He will soon be among the new breed of young actors that you'll see walking down," Mahesh added.

The fourth instalment of the "Raaz" franchise features Emraan in the main lead opposite south Indian actress Kriti Kharbanda. The film has been shot in Romania. The plot of the film is not out yet, but it is expected to retain the spooky level with a haunting story.
