Mahesh Bhatt is excited about his upcoming film Aashiqui 2. The director revealed that it's an autobiographical movie as it tells the story of his first love. 

He tweeted: 'Many years later I sit here replaying the memories of a pact that was made between me and Gulshan Kumar. The year was 1991. 'Make me a musical love story & i promise you that the movie will remain in the hearts of every Indian for decades to come,' he said. Let us make a movie that captures all the seasons of the heart in love... the human heart has remained unchanged since the dawn of time. The best kept secret about Aashiqui is that it is also an autobiographical film, as it deals with the story of my very first love.'

He also informed that Aashiqui 2 isn't the remake of the original: '21 yrs latter, Bhushan Kumar and Mohit Suri have come together to dream the same dream that we did twenty one years ago. Aashiqui 2 will dare to rise up to the expectations ignited by this ageless musical and continue the legacy.... Aashiqui 2 is being written by Shagufta Rafique and it is not a REMAKE!'
