Sam Merchant reacts as Kartik gets trolled
A meme page recently shared a post that featured Kartik's look from 'Aashiqui 3'. The post poked fun at him with the caption, 'Bhai pura time bhikhari look mai hype banata reh gaya. Udhar Saiyaara ne baazi maar li.'
This loosely translates to someone joking that Kartik spent all his time trying to gain hype with a 'beggar-like' look, while 'Saiyaara' ended up winning hearts.
While fans reacted with laughs and comments, it was Sam Merchant's response that caught many eyes. He dropped a string of laughing emojis under the post, making it clear he enjoyed the roast.
Triptii Dimri was once the lead in 'Aashiqui 3'
According to reports, Triptii Dimri was originally announced as the female lead opposite Kartik Aaryan in the film.
But soon after, she was dropped from the project without any official explanation from the team.
Reports suggested that the change was linked to Triptii's rising fame after her role in 'Animal'. According to a source quoted by Hindustan Times, 'The fundamental requirement to be the heroine of Aashiqui 3 is innocence reflecting through, and as observed by the team behind the film, Triptii Dimri with her recent films has become too exposed to be cast in this romantic film which demands purity in demeanour from the female lead.

The source also added, 'Aashiqui is a legendary, soulful love story and the makers do not see Tripti fitting the parameters. After Animal, there has been no buzz around her. More so, her solo standing at the box office hasn't proven profitable with her recent films.'
Sreeleela is now the lead
After Triptii's unexpected exit, the makers brought in Sreeleela, known for her role in 'Pushpa 2: The Rule'. The news surprised many fans who were excited to see Kartik and Triptii together. Although no official reason was given by the team for Triptii's exit.

'Saiyaara', starring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, has emerged as a surprise blockbuster, surpassing the ₹ 200 crore mark within just nine days of its theatrical release. On its second Saturday (day 9), the romantic drama added ₹ 15.32 crore to its kitty, taking the total box office collection to an impressive ₹ 206.07 crore. The film had a stellar opening week, collecting ₹ 172.75 crore in its first seven days, fuelled by positive word-of-mouth, strong youth appeal, and chart-topping music. Despite facing competition from several big releases, 'Saiyaara' maintained strong footfalls into its second week, earning ₹ 18 crore on its second Friday and showing a minor dip on Saturday. What's particularly notable is the widespread pan-India appeal the film seems to have cultivated. Urban centres continue to show strong interest, with Chennai leading the occupancy chart at a robust 62.5%, followed closely by Bengaluru at 54.5%. The National Capital Region (NCR) and Mumbai also recorded solid occupancies at 35.5% and 31.5% respectively, reflecting sustained interest across metro cities. Other cities such as Pune (33%), Jaipur (37.5%), and Chandigarh (32.5%) also reported healthy theatre occupancies, while places like Surat (13.5%) and Kolkata (21.5%) witnessed relatively subdued turnout. Directed by Mohit Suri, 'Saiyaara' has not only served as a launching pad for its lead actors but also struck a chord with audiences through its emotional storytelling and stylish execution. The film's success is being hailed as a fresh sign of promise in Bollywood's evolving landscape, particularly for fresh faces and romantic narratives.
