Kartik Aaryan is one of India`s most loved superstars and his latest superhit, `Satyaprem Ki Katha`, has catapulted his fandom to a whole different level globally. Recently the actor flew to Australia for the 14th Indian Film Festival of Melbourne and a special screening of his film was held for the fans, where he will also be awarded with the honour of the Rising Global Superstar. The interaction was done there to celebrate the actor`s journey as an outsider from Gwalior to the Rising global superstar that he is today with many superhits to his credit.
During the interaction, when Kartik was asked about exploring different genres because he wanted to and could do, after already being a successful comedy star which is a difficult genre many people to date haven`t been able to achieve, Kartik responded by talking about his loyal fans as he said, “It`s difficult to be loved for being yourself, and I think its rare and my fans really love me for who I am and how I am, so that is a rare thing." He adds, "For the longest time, jaisa main hoon shuruat se, aaj tak vaisa hi hoon and aage bhi vaisa hi rehne wala hoon. And they love me for how I behave or I talk or the way I am on screen, off-screen. With my films also, with my film choices also, mere flops ko jaldi se maaf bhi kar dete hein, mere hits ko, mereko sar pe chadha bhi dete hein, so I am really lucky to have that audience, that fandom which again I`ve noticed globally also now ye ek combination hai in sab cheezon ka which gives me a lot of confidence to actually choose such films. Wisest decision would be ki haan mein comedies hi karta rahun- (Pyaar ka Punchnama, Punchnama 2, Sonu ke Titu ki Sweety, Luka Chuppi, Pati Patni and so on) all of them mujhe pata hei ki logo ko pasand aane wala hein, yeh logo ke liye dal chawal hein staple hein, jaise mere liye. So I think woh bohot waisa decision hota hein lekin” and went on to say “I feel I have that confidence on my audience ki they will give me that chance to prove myself with ki achha ye yeh bhi kar sakta hein, yeh bhi kar sakta hein, so I feel somewhere down the line theres that connect. With SatyaPrem Ki Katha I was really nervous at the start that will they accept me as a pure romantic hero without those comical touches or without those support system and the way they reacted to it, the way it worked overseas also with time, so I was just amazed by that so I think they are giving me opportunities. And now with Kabir Khan sir, again that subject is something which I dont think, main chhodo, kisi ne shayad se nahi touch kiya hoga abhi tak so I am hoping that fingers crossed, that we achieve what we want to achieve with that film."
