Kartik Aaryan, one of Bollywood’s most bankable stars, is loved for his charm, comedic timing, and relatable monologues on modern relationships. As he promotes his upcoming film *Chandu Champion*, Kartik shared an interesting anecdote about fellow actor Ranbir Kapoor during a recent interview.
Kartik made his debut in 2011 with Luv Ranjan’s Pyaar Ka Punchnama, a sleeper hit that established him as a rising star. He continued his successful collaboration with Ranjan in films like Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2 (2015) and Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety (2018). However, Ranjan’s 2023 film *Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar* featured Ranbir Kapoor in the lead role instead of Kartik.
In a rapid-fire session with Zoom, Kartik was asked to share a specific quality of Ranbir Kapoor. He replied with a chuckle, “I believe that we were not given enough time, as I am the director.” I believe he took my director away at that time. Keep your director safe.” Despite not being the lead, Kartik made a memorable cameo in *Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar*, which was well-received by audiences.
Directed by Luv Ranjan, *Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar* stars Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor in lead roles and revolves around a liar and a con artist who fall in love and try to outsmart each other. The film’s comedic and romantic elements made it a hit among viewers. Kartik’s cameo, although brief, left a lasting impression and showcased his versatility as an actor.
On the professional front, Kartik has been making significant strides in Bollywood with transformative roles and commendable acting skills. He has starred in successful films like *Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2* and *Satyaprem Ki Katha*. His upcoming film *Chandu Champion*, set to release on June 14, portrays the life of India’s first Paralympic gold medalist, Murlikant Petkar.
In another interview on Raj Shamani’s YouTube channel, Kartik opened up about his personal life, addressing the persistent rumors about his dating life. Known for being linked with actresses like Sara Ali Khan, Ananya Panday, and Janhvi Kapoor, Kartik admitted to being single and expressed his frustration over the constant scrutiny. “Mera personal life at one point pe kaafi talked about ho gaya tha uss moment pe. Tab se aaj tak wahi chal raha hai. Main toh privately bhi date nahi kar raha hu. At one point, my personal life was the subject of much discussion. Till now, it has been the same thing. I am not even dating privately. Just roaming around scared, I guess,” he said.
Kartik’s candidness and relatability have earned him the title of ‘Janta Ka Superstar.’ Despite the challenges and rumors, he continues to focus on his work and connect with his audience through his performances.
In summary, Kartik Aaryan, known for his stellar performances and relatable persona, revealed during a recent interview that Ranbir Kapoor ‘took away’ his director, Luv Ranjan, for the film *Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar*. Despite this, Kartik continues to thrive in his career, with several exciting projects lined up and a dedicated fanbase supporting him.
