This is why Kartik Aaryan lost Karan Johar’s film

Kartik Aaryan gained huge popularity through his films Pyaar ka Puchnama and Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety. Owing to his crazy fan following and demand, director Karan Johar offered him a film opposite Akshay Kumar. However, it is now learnt that he has lost the film because of his starry tantrums.

According to reports, Dharma Productions had called Kartik to discuss the possibility of playing the second lead in a film starring Akshay Kumar and Kareena Kapoor Khan.

However, soon after the meeting, Kartik’s overenthusiastic team announced that he had been cast opposite Kareena Kapoor Khan in Karan Johar’s next.

“Dharma Productions sent Kartik feelers regarding a possible role, but it was nothing concrete. His team messed it up by releasing reports that the actor had been signed by Karan Johar when no such thing had happened,” a report in Deccan Chronicle quoted a Dharma Production source as saying.

The report also quoted a trade analyst who said the production house found the remuneration demanded by Kartik unexpectedly high. “He thinks he’s an A-list star now, and that he should be paid accordingly. Sadly, the producers don’t agree,” said the trade analyst.

While Dharma Productions has not announced details of the much talked about the film yet, a section of the media has reported that Akshay and Kareena will play a couple that is to conceive.

Kartik was last seen in Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety which rocked at the box office. He has been roped in for the Hindi remake of Kannada blockbuster Kirik Party.
