Mumbai: ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa’ star Kartik Aaryan’s new look, with long hair and beard, for Anurag Basu’s upcoming musical drama reminds netizens of singer Himesh Reshammiya.
Surprised by Kartik’s striking resemblance to the singer, netizens wonder if the actor’s upcoming film is a biopic on Himesh.
Sharing Himesh’s look from ‘Badass Ravikumar’ along with Kartik’s look from his upcoming film, a Reddit user wrote, “Aashiqui 3 is a biopic on Himesh Reshammiya, haters will disagree.”
Another user joked, “Kartik Aaryan as Himesh Reshammiya. Sreeleela as Ranu Mondal.”
Another commented, “Does it have Tan Tan Tandoori Nights? No Himesh biopic can be complete without that masterpiece.”
Another comment read, “I kept thinking it really was Himesh the entire time!!!!!”
Criticising Kartik’s new look, a user wrote, “After Ranbir in Animal, many actors have copied this look. Himesh in Ravi Kumar, Varun in Baby John, Kartik in A3, and Tiger has copied that other look in Baaghi 4. It’s ridiculous.”
Another wrote, “What is it with Indian cinema and men’s hairstyling?… FFS, no wonder the rest of the world seems to hate us.”
“Off-topic, but I have really high hopes for Aashiqui 3. Kartik’s look seems very over-the-top, broken, confused, and toxic,” read another comment.
