Kartik Aaryan

Kartik Aaryan: From Engineering to Bollywood Success Kartik Aaryan, born Kartik Tiwari on November 22, 1990, is a prominent Bollywood actor. His career trajectory showcases a compelling narrative of initial setbacks followed by substantial commercial success. While his debut in Luv Ranjan's Pyaar Ka Punchnama (2011) marked an entry into the film industry, subsequent films like Akaash Vani and Kaanchi failed to achieve significant traction. Aaryan's breakthrough arrived with Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety (2018), followed by a string of successful romantic comedies, including Luka Chuppi and Pati Patni Aur Woh (both 2019). He demonstrated versatility by venturing into thrillers with Dhamaka (2021) and Freddy (2022), and the romantic drama Satyaprem Ki Katha (2023). His portrayal of Murlikant Petkar in the biopic Chandu Champion (2024) garnered critical acclaim. Aaryan's box-office dominance solidified with the Bhool Bhulaiyaa franchise. Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 (2022) and its recent sequel, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 (2024), emerged as his highest-grossing ventures. The former earned him a Filmfare Award nomination for Best Actor. Beyond acting, Aaryan's endorsements and appearances at award ceremonies underscore his influence within the industry. His inclusion in Forbes India's Celebrity 100 list in 2019 further cemented his stature.
