Ahead of the release of Chandu Chandu, director Kabir Khan spoke about why Karthik chose Aarya to play the role of Murlikant Petnekar. I told IANS when I wrote the script for ‘Chandu’… You must have a character in your head when you write the script. That character, the character has an age, a personality, an attitude… So, if these pointers are there, the next step is to decide which actor can embody these qualities, and I feel these qualities in Karthik Aaryan. “
Chandu Champion is the first project of Karthik Aarya and Kabir Khan.
