About Chandu Champion and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3

Kartik worked with director Kabir Khan for the first time in Chandu Champion, which was a biopic of Murlikant Petkar, India's first Paralympic gold medalist, born on November 1, 1944, in Maharashtra. The film traced different phases and obstacles of his life. Petkar excelled in multiple sports, especially wrestling and hockey.

Kartik reprised his role as Rooh Baba in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3. Directed by Anees Bazmee, the third instalment of the horror comedy franchise also starred Vidya Balan, Madhuri Dixit and Triptii Dimri in pivotal roles. The Diwali release gave a solid competition to Rohit Shetty's Singham Again, and ultimately emerged victorious at the box office.

Kartik recently wrapped the shoot for his next, Aashiqui 3. The musical drama film will star Sreleela as the female lead, and is set to release in theatres in October.
