Kartik Aaryan: You will seen me in more different avatars

Kartik Aaryan had a memorable year in 2021 as he celebrated the success of his previous film, Dhamaka. His role as Arjun Pathak was very different from his previous roles in romantic comedies. With such a positive response from the audience, the actor has been inspired to try new things outside of his comfort zone. 

He said “I was trying a thriller for the first time. Plus, my character in that film had streaks of grey in it. It wasn’t a positive character. At the end of the day I knew I had done a good job as an actor, but I was only worried about the fact that my fans and the viewers accept me the same way they do for my rom-com parts. I just wanted them to love me the way they always shower love on all the positive characters I play on screen.”

Although this made Kartik nervous, he is finally happy with the acceptance he received for the Ram Madhvani directorial that also starred Mrunal Thakur. Talking about the success, Kartik added , “I am happy everyone enjoyed watching me on screen again. All the praises that I received just gave me a sense of validation. When you start off doing something new in life you want that validation and I think all the reviews, the appreciation posts on social media, all the messages and the phone calls I received really validated my choice of work and choice of character. It was one of the most challenging roles of my career. I am thankful to the audience and everyone from the industry for loving it. So, from here on you will see me in more and more different avatars and a lot more challenging roles.”
