Kartik Aaryan: I am glad that my patience and hard work have paid off

Kartik Aaryan, Nushrat Bharucha and Sunny Singh starrer Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety have opened up at the box office successfully. Kartik Aryan’s acting chops in the film have been received well by the critics and the audience.

In an interaction with a leading Indian daily, Kartik spoke about the film elaborately. Kartik said, "The moment I heard the script, I realised that the character has multiple shades. The USP of the movie is the bromance between Sonu and Titu. Everybody wants a friend like Sonu, who will stand by you like a rock. It could have come across as overly possessive and intrusive had I gone overboard. So, I had to draw a line and be careful about not stepping over. This film is about friendship and fortunately, people have got the right message."


On receiving lots of adulation for his performance, Kartik said, "People I have dreamed of working with have been calling and messaging me, appreciating my performance. It feels great when people talk about your craft and you get noticed for it."

Speaking about how happy he is considering the fact that his patience and hard work has paid off, the actor said, "People have told me that I am on the brink of stardom. I started very young as a hero. I was just 20 and I looked different back then. Most actors begin their careers at the age I am now. I have been told that I was well-utilized in my first film, but I was too young. Some people thought that I was crazy for declining a lot of offers while I was filming SKTKS, but I have waited patiently because I knew I had a winning hand. I have always believed that it takes time for things to fall into place and I am glad that my patience and hard work have paid off."
