Kartik Aaryan reacts on his alleged rift with Karan Johar over his exit from Dostana 2: “Main tab bhi silent tha and ab bhi silent hoon”

In an interview with Lallantop Kartik opened, “Dekhiye, woh bohat purani baat ho gayi. Kain baar bahut miscommunication hota hai aur kain baar bahot cheezein out of proportion bhi chali jati hai aur sepcifically jab voh likha jata hai to voh sound kuch aur karta hai.” (This news is quite stale now. Many a time, there is miscommunication, or something is blown out of proportion especially when something is written, and it sounds completely different).”

“Main tab bhi silent tha and ab bhi silent hoon un baaton pe. Main bas 100 pratishat kam karta huin, lekin jab bhi aise koi khabar aati hai ya koi controversy aa jati hai to main apne shell mein rehta huin, main shant rehta huin. Main un cheezon mein zyada ghusta hoon, aur naa kuch prove karne se mujhe kuch milta hai.” (I was silent when the news came about and I choose to stay silent even now. I am 100% focused on my work and when controversies of such nature happen, I stay calm about them. I don’t get involved a lot in them and I don’t have to prove anything to anyone by getting involved), the actor further added saying he wants to focus on his work as of now.

Kartik will next star as Paralympic sportsman Murlikant Petkar in Kabir Khan's biographical drama Chandu Champion. He will also reprise his role as Rooh Baba in the sequel Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3.
