Bollywood actor Kartik Aaryan's romantic life has perpetually been a subject of intense media speculation and public curiosity. Despite numerous link-ups with co-stars like Sara Ali Khan and Ananya Panday, the actor has consistently kept his personal affairs private, never officially confirming any relationship. This silence has only fueled the rumour mill, with past comments and alleged indirect digs from his rumoured ex-flames frequently making a comeback on social media and entertainment news cycles.
The Infamous 'Koffee With Karan' Jab
One such instance that continues to be discussed is Sara Ali Khan's appearance on the popular talk show 'Koffee with Karan Season 7'. Sharing the couch with Janhvi Kapoor, Sara did not hold back during the rapid-fire and candid segments. When host Karan Johar posed the question, "One reason why your ex is ex," Sara promptly replied with a smirk, "because he's everyone's ex." The remark sent Karan and Janhvi into fits of laughter, with the industry widely interpreting the comment as a pointed reference to Kartik Aaryan.
A History of Unconfirmed Romance
The backdrop to this dig is the long-standing speculation that Kartik Aaryan and Sara Ali Khan were romantically involved. Rumours of their relationship first sparked during the making and subsequent release of their 2020 film, 'Love Aaj Kal', directed by Imtiaz Ali. The gossip gained further traction when Kartik was spotted visiting Sara on the sets of her film in Thailand and was reportedly part of her birthday celebrations. However, throughout this period, both actors maintained a discreet silence, neither acknowledging nor denying the dating rumours, leaving fans and media to connect the dots.
Professional Front: A Mixed Bag
While his personal life remains a topic of chatter, Kartik Aaryan's professional journey has seen its own share of ups and downs. His most recent theatrical release was the film 'Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri', co-starring Ananya Panday. The movie opened to mixed reviews from critics and faced significant online trolling for its music even prior to its launch. Despite releasing during a festive period, the film struggled to make a substantial impact at the box office. Its performance was eventually overshadowed by the buzz surrounding other major releases like Ranveer Singh's 'Dhurandhar'.
Amidst the swirling rumours about a potential link with a teenager, which he has not addressed, and the constant resurrection of old quotes, Kartik Aaryan's narrative in the public eye remains a blend of his on-screen projects and off-screen speculation. The cycle of rumours, cryptic statements, and box office outcomes continues to define his presence in the vibrant and ever-watchful world of Bollywood.
