Kartik Aaryan completes 11 years in Bollywood; thanks people 'who went for the craft instead of lineage'

Kartik Aaryan gave Bollywood the much-needed respite with the mega success of his film Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 post the pandemic. The actor has come a long way in his journey, starting out from a small town in Gwalior to being one of Bollywood's top stars today.

In a recent interview with a HT Brunch magazine, the actor opened up on his his journey started and his dream to be where he is today as he shares, "We are a family of movie buffs. With my parents and my sister, I would always watch new releases at theatres or movies on television. I was so much in love with that world that I desperately wanted to be a part of it. It started with the dream to become a hero."

“By the time I was in class XI, I was already hooked to acting. I would take videos of movie scenes, write down the dialogues, and try to perform them in my own way. I would thus create my own acting workshops. This practice continued even when I started acting in movies," he added.

"My roots, my growing up in a town like Gwalior, is what makes me who I am. I will always be that person. Also, being from a small town not only makes me strive harder to reach the number one spot but also keeps me grounded. I can still go back and live that life," he continued.

"I take pride in the fact that I have done this on my own and with the help of people who put their trust in my capabilities without knowing me. They went for the craft instead of lineage," he said.

The actor also has an exciting slate of films ahead with Shehzada, Freddy, Captain India, Sajid Nadiadwala’s Satyaprem Ki Katha and Kabir Khan’s untitled next.
