My parents thought I was studying BIOTech there but I was going for auditions."The actor added, "Jab meri pehli film Pyaar Ka Punchnama ka audition crack hua tab maine Mom and dad ko bataya that I wanted to be an actor. I remember it was a very emotional moment. Maine rote rote Andheri station par tha wahan se call kiya tha maine. Wahan se local train leta tha main jaane ke liye. Main toh ro raha tha mummy bhi rone lagi achanak se. Woh bhi shock mein aagaye kya bol raha hai mera beta." Kartik Aaryan further said, "Just two days later, my mom and maasi (aunt) were sitting in director Luv sir’s office. I was performing a romantic scene, and they were watching it on the laptop.
