Kartik Aaryan recalls refusing pan-masala brands

Kartik Aaryan recently revealed why he rejected pan-masala, supari brands.

Kartik recalled how he did not renew his contract for a fairness brand after endorsing it for a brief period. He told, “I did an ad for a face cream a long time ago but then I stopped it. I was not convinced with it. I did not renew it because then I understood that it could be wrong.” The actor further said, “I have been offered a lot of brands that I have refused. Like those supari, pan masala brands. I don’t relate to those things. And I try that as long as I can, I refuse these things. I can’t say who is right or wrong, everyone has their own way of thinking. But this doesn’t fit my plans.”
