Kartik Aaryan, in a new interview, said that he believes in just concentrating on his work, and hopes that it reaches more and more people.

Kartik Aaryan’s Diwali release Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, co-starring Vidya Balan and Madhuri Dixit, is having a blockbuster run in cinema halls. So far, the horror comedy has already crossed the 200-crore mark at the national box office, and continues to draw the audience to theatres.

Post the film’s release, Kartik recently flew to Dubai to promote this Anees Bazmee directorial. In an interview with Khaleej Times, one of the publications there, the actor opened up on his secret sauce behind delivering successful films.

The actor said, “Honestly, I just concentrate on my work, and I hope it reaches more and more people. Since the pandemic, I’ve been fortunate to have a great mix of films—be it Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, Chandu Champion, Freddy, or Satyaprem Ki Katha. All these projects came at the right time, and I’ve truly enjoyed this entire run. I don’t know if there’s a secret sauce—it’s just that I’m fully invested, giving 200 per cent to every character and every project I choose.”

On being asked what qualities he feels are essential to create that mass appeal, Kartik said, “I think it’s the reliability quotient. Everything has to have that element where people can see themselves in the story, at some level. If I look at my films—Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety, Luka Chuppi, Pati Patni Aur Woh—they all connect with audiences because of that.

Further, the Satya Prem Ki Katha’ actor said that for him, the definition of success is very relative.

“At first, success meant getting an opportunity to act in a film. Then, coming to Mumbai was a big success at one point in life. For me, getting my first big hit was success. Getting a relaunch with Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety, so that people would know my name—that was success. Stamping those successes with other films, again, was success,” he was quoted as saying.

Speaking about how his aims and goals keep changing with time, Kartik said that he might not be aiming for the same things now that he did five years ago. He also emphasized that while success can mean many times, one shouldn’t get too attached to it as it is never permanent.

The actor further on being asked whether it feels lonely to be at the top, said, “Most of the time, I’m either with my team or my family, and sometimes with my college friends, who are my real friends. So, I don’t know if it’s lonely. I’m happy to be surrounded by happy people.”

Admitting that one can feel lonely at the top, he said that it totally depends on the state of mind.

The ‘Chandu Champion’ actor continued, “There are two ways to think about it—you can either stay positive or think that you’re lonely. There is sadness and loneliness within everyone. Even if you’re surrounded by people, you can still feel lonely. It’s not about the situation or the circumstances. It’s just a very human emotion to feel lonely at times. And yes, it happens to me too, but it’s not something I feel all the time. Right now, I’m really happy, so I don’t feel that way at the moment.”

On the work front, Kartik Aaryan’s next is with Anurag Basu which reunites him with his ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’ co-star Triptii Dimri. There is also Pati Patni Aur Woh 2 on the cards.
