Kartik Aryan Plays A Journalist In Ram Madhavani’s Film

 Kartik Aryan who has been very busy during the lockdown posting videos  of his family activities, is all set to return  to   the his acting assignments.In December he will start  shooting  for Ram Madhvani’s untitled  film . In the  film  Kartik plays an investigative journalist. During lockdown,  he has apparently been  preparing for the part by  consulting his media  friends.

“The  entire film unfolds  in one  media office. There are only 5-6  characters. It is  a very intimate low-budget one-set  film and Kartik accepted  it because he wants to work with directors who can  tap his acting chops, also because  he wants to do  films far removed  from the lightweight comedies he  has  become typecast  in,” says a  source.

 Ram Madhvani’s film gives Kartik  a role  that could fetch him awards.

“When he  met  Ram  , Kartik’s only  precondition before signing  the film was, ‘I want this  film to do for me what  your Neerja  did  for Sonam.”

Kartik’s last attempt at  something different  pretty disastrous. At least that’s what  everyone thought about Imtiaz Ali’s  Love Aaj Kal.But Kartik disagrees.He  is  very proud  of  the  film.

Trade Guru  Taran Adarsh  had  said  to this  writer,  “From what distributors and exhibitors told me, the audience have found the content confusing. Also, the execution of the written material caters to a very tiny audience, basically the select urban viewer. That coupled with comparisons with the earlier Love Aaj Kal, 2009, went against the film. The poor trending over the weekend proves that word of mouth is negative.”

 Taran also added  that  the failure  of Love  Aaj Kal  did not affect  Kartik’s career , since he  had hits behind him and a strong backup plan for future.
