Kartik Aaryan is busy promoting his upcoming horror comedy Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3. After Akshay Kumar, the actor took over the horror-comedy franchise in 2022. The sequel was a hit and the expectations from the third installment are quite high. Also this year, Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor's Stree 2 was a blockbuster. So fans are hoping BB does the same.

In an interview, Kartik Aaryan was asked if he feels the box office pressure after Stree 2's massive success. The actor said that there is mathematics behind it, regarding who's working in the film, what was their last film and what's next. He also said how the release date plays a key role, whether there are many holidays in the run. Kartik believes several calculations come into play that people are looking at and when the things are calculated well, one doesn't take any pressure.

The Freddy actor further said, "In my journey, I’ve never had anything handed to me. I had to make the plate myself; no one came to me with a platter. No one got me a Rs 500 crore director when I started; I worked with all debut directors. So, I haven’t been that lucky, but I know from where my margin can rise. If I am still giving that number, I am content with that."

Further in this entertainment news, Kartik Aaryan added that he is neither comparing nor complaining. As an actor, he is in a good space because nobody knew him when he came to the city. Today, he is recognised in every corner of the country and that's something he is grateful for.
