Description:

Kartik Aaryan is a rising star in Bollywood, and his recent film, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, is proof of that. According to Filmfare, the film helped resuscitate the cash-strapped Indian film industry by grossing over INR100 crores in its first ten days of release. The Kartik Aryan-starrer is trying to generate more money at the box office by bringing families back to the theatres, and the star of the show has a lot to say about the film"s blazing popularity.

"I owe a huge debt of gratitude to the crowd for this historic debut!" "As an actor, my main motivation has always been to amuse the audience, and the overwhelming affection that has been shown for the film is not just inspiring but also validating on so many levels," Kartik told Filmfare.

"The day I start thinking about and being pulled down by the company"s economics or the pressure of presumption, I won"t be able to focus on my work." which is trying to deliver best entertainment and performance that I can," Kartik said when asked if the film"s massive success puts pressure on him as an actor when analysing future projects.

Kartik is thrilled that he is being hailed as the "saviour" of the film business, but he is humbled nonetheless. "I"ve got a long way to go and a lot of work ahead of me." I"m having a blast at work right now, and it"s inspiring me to keep pushing the envelope. "It"s been a roller coaster ride," the actor has stated of his trip thus far. Every step of this road has taught me something new, and I consider myself tremendously fortunate to be able to accomplish such amazing work. My ambition is to become the best actor in the business."

"Honestly, I was handed the script first without understanding what project it was for, and I was instantly on board because I adored this writing," Kartik said of his decision to sign Bhool Bhulaiyaa. After that, I discovered it was for Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2. I used to watch Bhool Bhulaiyaa in school and could never have guessed I"d be offered the part, so it was surreal when it occurred."

"Akshay sir is a superstar and no one can do what he does," Kartik said of fitting into Akshay Kumar"s shoes. I"ve been watching him since I was a child. He"s always been someone I"ve looked up to. I admire him both as an actor and as a human being. I never felt compelled to step into his shoes because those are some very large shoes to fill. However, I tried my hardest to live up to Anees sir"s and the producers" expectations."

Tabu, who is famed for her always enthralling performances, also appears in the film, and Kartik learned a lot from her. "I learned a lot from Tabu ma"am just by watching her work on set." She"s a fantastic actress. I"ve always admired her work and consider myself fortunate to have worked with her. Hopefully, I"ll get the opportunity to do so again."

"As an actor, all I can possibly ask for is a platform to deliver my craft," Kartik said of his experience making his OTT debut with Dhamaka. Whether it"s on the small screen or on the large screen, the experience of conveying different stories is my main goal. Both platforms provide unique experiences. It"s almost magical that my film was only a click away for consumers all over the world. It"s also incredible to see larger-than-life films in theatres."

Kartik thanked social media on that note, remembering his debut into the film industry. "I used to watch all the auditions and casting call sites on Facebook when I was in college, and that"s when I came across this post for a young child with a criteria for a profile that matched mine." I went for it and was chosen by God"s mercy. It wasn"t until later that I realised it was for the movie Pyaar Ka Punchnama." "It definitely wasn"t an overnight thing," Kartik said when asked if he"d ever seen himself as a star. "But I think after Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety, that change started to come in, when people started noticing and calling me by my name."

Kartik also indicated an interest in joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe. "Recently, I saw Dr Strange in the theatre, and I was like, I want to be part of a Marvel universe," Kartik said when asked if there was any project he wants to be a part of. They have a remarkable knack for conjuring up illusions." "I can"t think of just one," he said when asked about an actor"s performance that humbled him. There are so many excellent performers in our industry, and so many of my contemporaries have given incredible performances, such as Alia Bhatt in Gangubai Kathiawadi, and so many more."
