Kartik Aaryan is currently gearing up for his Valentine’s release Love Aaj Kal alongside Sara Ali Khan. The actor in very less time has created a huge fan base, especially amongst the youth. The actor doesn’t feel affected by a comparison with Ayushmann Khurana as he believes they do different kinds of films.
Talking to Radio City about it, Kartik said the two have one thing that separates their work. “It often happens that Ayushmann does films about men with defects while I do films about women with defects,” while Kartik and the interviewers began laughing, Sara seemed confused at the joke.
Kartik explained to her that he has done films like Pyaar Ka Punchnama and Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety. When she asked her what’s the defect in her character Zoe in their upcoming film Love Aaj Kal, Kartik just quoted the song from the film, ‘Haan Main Galat’.
In past, Kartik has earned some criticism for being part of films with sexist undertones. While the two Pyaar Ka Punchnama movies showed women as abusive, and gold-diggers, Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety showed the female lead to be manipulative and selfish.
His last film, Pati Patni Aur Woh also came under scanner for a joke making light of marital sex. The line was later removed from the film. Kartik said the decision was taken after they realised people were “hurt” after watching the trailer.
