Star Hero, Zero Without Sequels & Franchises?
At the box office, Kartik Aaryan's solo films did not perform very well. Despite receiving positive reviews from critics and viewers, his "Chandu Champion" was a movie office failure. So was "Shehzada," even though it was released with a lot of excitement. The ideal tactic to salvage his career, which is now entirely reliant on sequels, would have been to release a solo film in the comedy genre, which is what he does best. Following Bhool Bhulaiya, audiences have already attacked him by drawing comparisons between his performance and Akshay Kumar's. He will now also be compared to saif ali khan in Cocktail 2, which would not be helpful for him.
