Kartik Aaryan is fresh off the success of his recent hit Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, which has collected over ₹366 crore at the worldwide box office despite releasing alongside the multi-starrer Singham Again on Diwali . Kartik's success is being celebrated as an outsider's victory as he was up against Bollywood biggies like Ajay Devgn , Kareena Kapoor, Deepika Padukone and many more, who led the Singham threequel.

While the Satyaprem Ki Katha star rang in his 34th birthday in Goa , many on social media noticed how he was not wished by his co-stars Sara Ali Khan, Ananya Panday and Kiara Advani on his special day even as it coincided with the blockbuster success of his movie.

Kartik compared to Sushant Singh Rajput

On social media, many pointed out how despite the tremendous success of his films at the box office, Kartik was, in a way, being sidelined in Bollywood as the industry largely snubbed him on his birthday, some being his co-stars in recent years. Many drew comparisons with how Sushant was treated while he was still alive. The MS Dhoni star passed away in Mumbai in June 2020, aged 34. After his unfortunate demise, a narrative emerged around how "outsiders" were treated in Bollywood despite their success.
