Nushrat was equally as good (if not better) as him in PKP1/PKP2 and SKTKS and somehow he got all the credit. Also I think Sara happened to him. In the chakkar of trying to make a PR relationship, she somehow propelled him to ideal bf material, which is why he is in news for relationships as well though I doubt she could care less about him in real life.
You do bring a point, for the longest time I thought Sara propelled him but it wasn’t Sara, it was Kjo who convinced Sara to say that becos he knew Imtiaz was considering Kartik for the role becos there is a part of Imtiaz that loves to chase stars...sometimes at the cost of his movie...Kjo wanted to test that..and it worked. Like you said a complete PR stunt engineering by Kjo.
In fact in my opinion, I totally agree with you Nushrat is a far better actress than most in her age category..including Bhumi, Parineeti, or even a Sara. Becos with the 4 movies she has done, she has shown a range that none of the actresses have been able to show.
