Kartik Aaryan, the actor who plays the central role in his recent movie Freddy, describes the journey as “tedious and taxing.” Freddy, helmed by Shashanka Ghosh, is hailed as a riveting thriller with cliffhangers, turns, and sentiments. Here read below to know what he has to say about his role ‘Freddy’.
Talking to PTI, Kartik Aaryan said, “Freddy has taught me a lot. For the first time, I adapted a method maybe to understand the character. I was actually living life like Freddy. I learned a lot of methods in this film, which was not my way of doing things,”
The actor further mentioned how she slipped into the character Freddy, so much that he started thinking like the character, and said, “It was very exhausting to play Freddy. I was behaving like Freddy in my real-life as well. I actually became a loner and introvert. I had a ‘Freddy playlist’ with jazz music. We were also exploring Freddy while we were creating it.” He added, “It was tiring, but the character needed this. I had internalised the character so much that I started thinking almost like him. It was a bit taxing,” as quoted by The Indian Express.
He continued, “Offers in thriller space started coming in after Sonu. A lot of people were not expecting me to get into this genre, so they were not offering me a film like Freddy. I heard a lot of scripts in thriller space because I wanted to do a film like this. When Freddy came, I was blown away by the story and the character.”
Lastly, Aaryan stated, “It is a kind of film that should be on a digital platform, otherwise we would have to tamper a lot of the content and change it according to theatres. We were clear about a lot of things when we started the film,”
