In a rare moment of candour and camaraderie, Karan Johar opened up about his renewed collaboration with Kartik Aaryan — silencing rumours and putting to rest past differences.

EXCLUSIVE: Karan Johar showers praise on Kartik Aaryan: “He is immensely hardworking with great screenplay instincts”

 

Karan said, “I think that we internally discussed it, worked it out, and we let bygones be bygones. And Kartik is an immensely hardworking, very connective big star today who has a wide audience base, has a great instinct on screenplay. He and I met, collaborated, decided to come together. It was all kosher, all lovely.”

 

The filmmaker added, “And I've had, he's had, we’ve all had our issues with each other. But it's a tiny industry, which I call a family. And I believe that within a family, sometimes there are complaints, but at the end of the day, you know, good people want to make good films and come together to create good content. And you have to let, as I said, we don't sweat the small stuff. We have the larger vision to look at.”

Kartik’s journey from a monologue-spouting outsider to one of Bollywood’s most bankable stars has been nothing short of meteoric. He’s now the face of dependable box office content. What’s more exciting is his line-up of three big films, announced within just two months. First up is Anurag Basu’s untitled musical romance with Sreeleela, followed by Nagzilla — a comedy-drama, and finally Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri under Dharma Productions.
