Kartik comes from a family with no contact in the entertainment world. So, he carved his journey from scratch. Kartik revealed he used to give several auditions and faced countless rejections during that time. He added that constant rejections affected him, and he felt frustrated. But, with time, the efforts have paid off, and fans' appreciation is worth the hard work. In his words:
"It was very harsh. It's like you don't exist. Lagta tha ki aapki koi value hai nahi. My loneliness has been compensated by my fans."
Kartik Aaryan had earlier shared that he used to miss his college lectures to give auditions. But he felt that being an 'outsider' made it more difficult for him to get noticed, making him a bitter person. He said:
“Main line mein laga hoon aur dusro ko line mein lagne ki zaroorat bhi nahi padh rahi. Wahan chai pi rahe hain jahan main auditions de raha hoon. There was never an even playing field. Aur wo toh aaj bhi rehta hai.”
