Kartik Aaryan plays primetime news anchor Arjun Pathak in the thriller
Over the past decade, he has built his career around rom-coms and feel-good comedies. But does it imply that Kartik Aaryan would be out of his depth in other genres? Hardly so. If the trailer is any indication, Dhamaka — a departure from his previous offerings — might be the perfect vehicle to showcase his acting prowess.
The actor admits his choices have undergone a shift in the past year, and Ram Madhvani’s directorial venture reflects that. “The lockdown gave me perspective on a lot of things. Because of the pandemic, I got that risk-taking ability. [Now], I want to do different stories. Dhamaka was an opportunity to explore something different. That change and that ability to take risks has come from within. It’s not that I don’t want to do rom-coms. I will do those too, but these are the stories that I am getting attracted to,” says Aaryan, adding that the audience’s palate too has changed in the past one-and-a-half years.
