Kartik Aaryan had the biggest opening of his career at the box office with the release of 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3' yesterday. However, in the beginning years of his career he went through a lot of financial struggle in order to survive in the city of dreams. While his story of sharing a house with 12 boys before landing his first film is known to many, he struggled to pay rent even after he became an actor in Hindi cinema. He started living alone in an apartment after the release of 'Pyaar Ka Punchnama'. However, the subsequent films did not shine at the box office. 


Kartik Aaryan recalls not being able to pay rent of Rs 2000-4000


Kartik, in a recent interview with Mashable India revealed that he struggled to pay his flat rent after a string of flops post Pyaar Ka Punchnama. While recalling his struggling phase, Kartik stated that, “I moved into a house where I lived alone but I was struggling a lot then. I didn’t have much money coming in and my films were not working. Pyaar Ka Punchnama had come at that time but that did not work much in my favour. After that Akaash Vaani did not do well, Kaanchi also didn't work. Guest in London also didn't work. Nobody knew much about these films as they were not working at the box office.”


He further said, “I was going through a lot of struggle when I lived here but I was very connected to this place. There was a point where I couldn’t pay the rent of this house. It was a very strange time because I was thinking either I bring in some roommates or I start sharing with someone else. Then finally Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety happened. I was paying ₹2,000 as rent then. At one point, it went up to ₹4,000.”
