Kartik Aaryan is undoubtedly one of the biggest crowd-pullers of Bollywood right now. The talented actor, best known for his exceptional comic timing, is currently going through the best phase of his acting career so far, with a highly promising line-up of films lined up. However, Kartik Aaryan did not start out as an actor as he often participated in modeling competitions. In one of his recent interviews, Kartik recalled his modeling days.

The actor told Times News Network, “I have always been a part of college competitions and I have also done a lot of modeling. I have competed in categories like ‘promising fresh face’ or ‘best ramp walk’.”

While performing in one such contest, Kartik Aaryan got nostalgic of those days, “The experience took me back to those days. I must say that all the contestants here are self made and that’s why they are so inspiring.” They have come here.” Traveling a long way from different parts of India, which is great because it took a lot of hard work and patience to reach where they are at the moment.”

Earlier, the Shehzada actor had shared with Bombay Times,

“I struggled a lot before doing my first film Pyaar Ka Punchnama. Then there was a struggle when I didn’t get the recognition I yearned for, which I finally got after the release of Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety. So, from Pyaar Ka Punchnama to Sonu… those seven years were the biggest struggles of my life.”

Kartik Aaryan also loves to entertain the audience, irrespective of the genre or characters allotted to him. He said, “My films will stick to the general thread of entertainment. The audience should expect a variety of characters that I play, but whatever be the genre, I will not miss the entertainment quotient in my films. So yes, I am excited to do films of different genres, provided they are full of entertainment.
