Career

Kartik Aaryan launched his Bollywood career in 2011 with the sleeper hit Pyaar Ka Punchnama, directed by Luv Ranjan. His character’s iconic four-minute monologue became a cultural milestone, establishing him as a promising newcomer.

Although Pyaar Ka Punchnama marked a success, Aaryan‘s early career faced challenges, with his subsequent films Akaash Vani (2013) and Kaanchi: The Unbreakable (2014) failing to impact the box office.

A turning point came in 2015 with Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2, where Aaryan once again delivered a memorable monologue, further solidifying his comedic talent. However, his true breakthrough came in 2018 with Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety, one of the year’s highest-grossing films, and cemented Aaryan‘s status as a leading star in romantic comedies.

He continued to shine in romantic comedies with films like Luka Chuppi (2019), opposite Kriti Sanon, and Pati Patni Aur Woh (2019), where his ability to blend humor with more complex character portrayals stood out.

Aaryan‘s versatility expanded with the 2021 thriller Dhamaka, released on an OTT platform, where he played a journalist in a high-pressure situation.

In 2022, his role as Rooh Baba in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 became a commercial hit, marking his success in the horror-comedy genre. This was followed by Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 (2024), further cementing his reputation. Aaryan‘s portrayal of real-life Paralympic champion Murlikant Petkar in Chandu Champion (2024) earned critical praise, showcasing his depth as an actor beyond comedy.
