Till just a few months back he was binging in all the swag on the floor with chartbuster tracks ‘Bom Diggy’ [Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety] and ‘Coca Cola’ [Luka Chuppi]. Well, come December and Kartik Aaryan could well be willing to shed his stylish avtar and appear in something far simpler and sober, courtesy his next release Pati Patni aur Woh. If the early indications of his characterization as Chintu Tyagi in the romantic comedy is anything to go by, Kartik would be pretty much seen as a simpleton in this BR Films classic remake.
“There was a moustached look of his which was released a few weeks back. Just when one thought that soon enough he would be seen in a stylized avtar, Kartik has now thrown further surprise at his fans. He recently released a still from the film where he is sitting at an office desk in what seems like a government office. What has caught everyone’s attention though is ultra plain look where he not just sports a moustache but also lets out a smile which goes with that of a common man,” says an observer.
Not just that as his simple sky blue colored shirt screams middle class all the way, and so does his body frame which appears to be leaner than before with shoulders drooping rather casually.
“In short, he is coming across as every bit non-hero like, something that is a complete departure from the persona that he has boasted of in his last three superhits, Luka Chuppi, Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety and Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2. It is good to see Kartik presenting a new side of his persona to the audience with this film,” the observer adds.

However, there is a twist in the tale. Considering the fact that the film is an official remake of Sanjeev Kumar’s namesake film, Kartik is playing a character who is two timing with his wife [Bhumi Pednekar] and girlfriend [Ananya Panday].
“That’s the beauty of it,” says our source attached to the film, “You have seen one look of Kartik from the film, now wait for more looks which would be out in some time for now. Rest assured you would be surprised all over again.”
So will that be a stylish avtar? Well, our guess is as good as yours!
