Alia Bhatt’s Half Brother Rahul Bhatt Says Kartik Aaryan Aces The PR Game: ‘Didn’t Get Along With Him…’

Kartik Aaryan showed a massive physical transformation in Kabir Khan's directorial sports drama Chandu Champion, which released in 2024. His look and performance were both praised by the critics. But do you know who helped Kartik Aaryan for his physical transformation in Chandu Champion? It is none other than the popular fitness trainer Rahul Bhatt, son of filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt. The trainer cum actor recently opened up about his equation with Kartik Aaryan while shooting the film. Know what he said here. 

In an interview with Hindi Rush, Rahul said “He didn’t have any foundation in strength training. He also had to do boxing, which is a different skill set. He also had to do swimming. So it was a tough thing he pulled off. He’s not an athlete. He’s not Tiger (Shroff) or one of those guys. But he pulled it off.” 

He added, “He’d doubt me a little in the beginning. I didn’t get along with him, like say I did with Aamir (Khan). You have to get along in this business. You have to surrender to your coach. That comfort has to be there. He was very respectful, very punctual, a thorough professional again. There are a lot of things I’ve learnt from him, like self-promotion. Baap ka baap hai, dadaji hai, ye sab cheez mein (he aces the PR game). But I can’t do what he can. Only he can do it. That’s what it takes to be a movie star in today’s time. If that’s what it takes, then I’m not fit to be anything. I’m fit to be a pehelwan (bodybuilder) only.”
