Shatrughan Sinha Compares Himself To Kartik Aaryan, Says ‘He Is An  Outsider Who…’

Shatrughan Sinha praised Kartik Aaryan for making it big in Bollywood without a godfather, just like he did in his time.

Veteran actor Shatrughan Sinha has showered praise on Bollywood’s rising superstar, Kartik Aaryan, calling him a true self-made success in the industry. Drawing parallels between his own journey and Kartik, Shatrughan acknowledged the actor’s hard work and determination in carving a niche for himself without any industry connections.

Shatrughan Sinha On Kartik Aaryan

Shatrughan Sinha opened up about Kartik Aaryan’s determination and said, “What a sincere hardworking boy!  Kartik  deserves all the success he is getting.  He is so dedicated and passionate in Chandu Champion. Ek junoon hai uss bachche mein. Please convey my congratulations to him.”

He further compared his own journey with Kartik and said, “Like me, he is  an outsider who made it own  his own. Jab main aaya ttha toh baahar ka ttha. I had no connections with the industry. Amitabh Bachchan  had come with a recommendation letter from Srimati Indira Gandhi. Mere paas kuch bhi nahin tha except self confidence. Just like Kartik, nor was I a gora-chitta Punjabi like the ruling heroes of those times, like Dharmendra and Jeetendra. Every ten years, the film industry gets one outsider who takes over the industry. After Akshay Kumar, it is Kartik Aaryan.”

In 2011, a young actor from Gwalior blew the audiences’ collective minds with his 12-minute uninterrupted one-take monologue on What Women Want (or, rather, what men think women want) in Pyaar Ka Punchnama. A star was indeed born. Now, after Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety, Luka Chuppi, and Pati Patni Aur Woh,  Kartik Aaryan is considered  one of the most box office-friendly  actors of the post-Ranbir generation.
