The day he landed in Mumbai, a starry-eyed Kartik Aaryan, visited idol Shah Rukh Khan’s Mannat at Band Stand in Bandra. He was one among the thousands waiting to catch a glimpse of the superstar. Just then the gates were thrown open and SRK drove out in his car, waving out at his teeming admirers. His eyes met young Kartik’s for a fleeting second. It was a defining, decisive moment for Kartik. The boy, who had left the by-lanes of Gwalior in search of the glamour alleys, had met his hero.

The unassuming actor had arrived. And that he could pull in the crores.
Top filmmakers like Imtiaz Ali and Karan Johar have placed their bets on him. Beautiful girls like Sara Ali Khan and Ananya Panday can’t have enough of him. Life is coming up beautifully for him, right now. Kartik Aaryan is a rare breed, who cut through dynasty and discrimination to carve his success trail…
