Kartik Aaryan made his big Bollywood debut in 2011 and rose to fame. He initially struggled with kissing scenes. His breakthrough came with 'Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety'. The film crossed Rs 100 crore. He delivered hits like 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2'. 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3' is his highest-grossing film. He has several upcoming projects. Kartik Aaryan , one of Bollywood's most beloved stars, has come a long way since his 2011 debut. From his early days as a monologue actor to becoming a Rs 100 crore club member with Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety and delivering massive hits like Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, his journey has been remarkable. Interestingly, early in his career, the actor even struggled with on-screen kissing, famously requiring numerous retakes for a passionate scene in Subhash Ghai 's Kaanchi. Born on November 22, 1990, into a Brahmin family in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, Kartik Aaryan has become one of Bollywood's top stars today. He commands a strong fan base and enjoys a successful film career, which began with his debut film, Pyaar Ka Punchnama, released in 2011 by filmmaker Luv Ranjan. Although Pyaar Ka Punchnama performed decently at the box office, Kartik Aaryan's acting was highly praised. Interestingly, he also worked as an Assistant Director on his third film, Kaanchi, directed by Subhash Ghai. According to a report published in Pinkvilla, during Kaanchi, he reportedly struggled with kissing scenes, even taking around 37 retakes for one passionate sequence. In his early career, he earned the label "monologue actor" due to the lengthy monologues he delivered in films like Pyaar Ka Punchnama, Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2, Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety, and Pati Patni Aur Woh. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Pinga-Pinga e HBP?

Rahul Vaidya responds after Virat Kohli's brother Vikas tells him to 'focus on singing over publicity stunts': 'He once praised my singing'

Rahul's Instagram video offended many of Virat's fans, including his brother Vikas Kohli, who criticised the singer. Rahul about Vikas Kohli's remark In a recent conversation with Instant Bollywood, Rahul revealed that Vikas Kohli had reached out to him and asked why he was unnecessarily bringing up his brother's name. Rahul Vaidya and Disha Parmar Spotted at the Airport with Baby Navya 'After the incident, his brother said some things to me. He told me, 'It would be better if you focused on your singing,' or something along those lines. He is the same Vikas Kohli who once met me outside a stadium in Manchester and praised my singing. But I understand how it feels because even small controversies can affect a person's family. He didn't like what was going on, and that's why he said those things to me,' Rahul explained.

Dipika Kakar speaks for the first time after 14-hour cancer surgery; shares emotional health update

Dipika Kakar, who was recently diagnosed with stage 2 liver cancer , made her first public appearance following a major surgery in her husband Shoaib Ibrahim's vlog. The actress underwent a 14-hour operation that included the removal of a tumor, her gall bladder, and a portion of her liver. According to Shoaib, the surgery was successful, and the liver's ability to regenerate helps reduce long-term complications. He assured fans that Dipika was in stable condition, although recovery would take time. Recovering Slowly but Steadily In the video posted on Shoaib's YouTube channel, Dipika appeared visibly emotional but managed to share a few words with fans. She mentioned that she was feeling significantly better, though she experienced pain due to a cough that impacted her stitches. The actress admitted that even small acts of kindness from nurses and relatives of other patients had a meaningful impact on her during her hospital stay. Shoaib explained that Dipika initially faced panic when learning she had to stay alone in the ICU, and he noted that she spent three days there before moving to a regular room. She has since resumed walking and eating on her own and is now on a normal diet. Shoaib also shared that Dipika has become more emotional since the surgery, often tearing up over small things. Despite the struggles, she expressed deep gratitude for the overwhelming support and prayers from fans. Strict Measures to Prevent Infection Due to her vulnerable condition, Shoaib restricted visits to Dipika during her hospital stay to prevent potential infections. He emphasized the importance of maintaining strict hygiene at home post-discharge. Shoaib also acknowledged the support of his extended family and house help, highlighting how they stepped in to manage household responsibilities and care for their infant son, Ruhaan. First Family Reunion After Surgery The vlog also featured heartwarming moments as Dipika reunited with her son and family members. She was seen hugging and playing with Ruhaan in her hospital room, marking a touching moment of comfort amid her recovery. Both grandmothers accompanied Ruhaan for the visit, showering Dipika with love and reassurance. Shoaib revealed that Dipika constantly asked for videos of Ruhaan during her hospital stay, drawing strength from those moments. The couple thanked everyone for their ongoing prayers and positive messages, as Dipika continues her journey to full recovery. Fans across social media have extended their best wishes, with the vlog receiving over a million views since its release.
