Badshah takes Kartik Aaryan u-turn, upgrades him from 'overrated' to 'brilliant actor'

Singer-Rapper-turned-actor Badshah who hit the headlines a few months back for calling Kartik Aaryan an ‘overrated actor’ at Koffee with Karan has taken a u-turn literally and has now called him a ‘brilliant actor’. Wonder what happened?

In an interview with a daily tabloid, Badshah said he didn’t know why he named him, probably because they ‘were talking about Kartik during the break’ and he further said that it just came out but stressed on the fact that he is ‘a brilliant actor with a very good script sense.’. Infact, Badshah further clarified that when he told Kartik that he was entering the acting arena, Kartik joked by saying: 'Beta, ab tu dekh.’
