In the generation where nepotism is ruling Bollywood, Kartik Aaryan rose to stardom with all the hard work and no family background. He is a self-made star who faced a lot of struggles to reach the heights in his career. He made his debut with the 2011 film Pyaar Ka Punchnama and had to wait for more than seven years to get this stardom. Right now, Karthik has become a goto guy for the rom-com and he is also a heartthrob for the many young ladies out there.
Another actor who got stardom without any family background is Ayushmann Khurrana. This talented hero has become a care-of address for content-oriented films. He is the most successful hero in terms of financial returns, in the past three years. People often compare Karthik and Ayushmann as they came without any support.
When asked about his feeling on this comparison in a recent interview, Karthik Aryan said that one thing separates their work. "He does films about men with defects while I do films about women with defects." Actress Sara Ali Khan, who was sitting beside him in the interview, countered by saying her character didn't have any defect in their new film Love Aaj Kal. Then, Kartik replied by humming a phrase from their film's song, "Haa Mein Galat (Yes, I'm wrong)." Love Aaj Kal is all set to hit the screens on February 14.
