The photo instantly went viral, and fans flooded the comments section. One of them wrote, “What a powerful look! “” Another comment read, “Chandu champion is here to rule”.” Another one wrote, “You look so smart in the uniformI can’tn’t wait for Chandu Champion anymore ✨❤️.”
Directed and written by Kabir Khan, Chandu Champion is a sports drama portraying the life of Murlikant Petkar, India’s first Paralympic gold medalist in freestyle swimming. Kartik Aaryan takes on the lead role, supported by Bhuvan Arora, Palak Lalwani, and Adonis Kapsalis. The film is set to release on June 14.
Kartik Aaryan has come a long way with rich content-driven and commercial films to his credit. Earlier, in an interview with BBC Asia, Kartik opened up about preparing for the film. “There’s a lot of weight transformation you’ll see throughout the film, so there will be a gap of like 2 months for me to again bulk up. And Kabir (Khan) sir is super—the way he’s shooting it and the way he’s looking into the other details. We were shooting at the Olympian Centre in London, and it was really hectic because I had a 102 fever and had to go in the water, which was cold. Every day, I would just have 3-4 pills before going into the water, then again, my viral would come back, then again it would subside, and then come back because I performed water scenes.”
On June 14, Kartik Aaryan’s Chandu Champion is set to clash with Kangana Ranaut’s Emergency. Initially slated for a November 2023 release, the film’s release was postponed due to a crowded release schedule. Emergency also features Anupam Kher as opposition leader J. P. Narayan, Shreyas Talpade as former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, and Milind Soman as Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw.
Besides the biopic, Kartik will soon commence filming for Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 with Anees Bazmee, Aashiqui 3, Hansal Mehta’s Captain India, the Hindi remake of Kirik Party, and an untitled film with Karan Johar.
