Kartik Aryan’s Stardom Unaffected By Love Aaj Kal

Kartik Aryan and Sara Ali Khan’s Love Aaj Kal  and its thundering  failure  seems to have left  its leading man Kartik Aryan  unscathed and  pretty much unfazed. Now shooting in Jaipur for  Anees Bazmee’s Bhool Bhulaiya 2  Kartik, says Bazmee,  fits comfortably  into  Akshay Kumar’s shoes.

Says Anees, “I can’t think of any other actor who could be  so comfortable doing  Bhool Bhulaiya 2. Kartik Aryan is  the  perfect fit. He  is  dedicated to his character  with the same passion  as Akshay.”

While  the  film has failed, the  attempt at a raw real performance in Love Aaj Kal has gone down well with  the  audience, and we hear  producer Dinesh Vijan who earlier scored a big hit with Kartik Aaryan  in Lukka Chuppi has already signed  Kartik Aryan for  a third film which , contrary to  rumours, won’t be directed  by Imtiaz Ali.

Kartik Aryan is also shooting Karan  Johar’s Dostana 2. So impressed is the  producer  by  Kartik’s dedication and  sincerity  that he too has  Kartik in  mind for another  Dharma  Production.

As for Imtiaz  Ali , it seems  he will find it very hard  to direct his next film anywhere in the near future.After  two back-to-back debacle Jab  Harry Met Sejal and now Love  Aaj Kal a majority  of  the  producers and production houses in Mumbai  feel Ali is   making the same film  all over again.

A  major  independent  producer with a  string of  superhits to  his credit says,  “We  have Imtiaz Ali signed  up. But I think he  needs to take  break before  doing his  next film.”
