Exclusive – Kartik Aaryan Freddy Interview! Watch Full Video –

In candid conversation with Arsh Vohra from Instant Bollywood, Kartik Aaryan reveals the ‘extra factor’ that went into creating Freddy and talks about his love for Arijit Singh songs……

Excerpts from the Interview – 

Instant Bollywood: We’ve all heard there’s magic in love. Today, we have with us Mr Freddy, jiske pyaar mai jaadu toh hai, but it’s black! (we’re still swooning over the Kaalu Jaadu song) Presenting none other than Kartik Aaryan!

Firstly, I’d like to talk about the song Kaala Jaadu. It gives off a very thriller vibe and one can already anticipate a great climax. What was your reaction when you heard it for the first time?

Kartik: When I heard it for the first time, I thought it was a blockbuster song, a sureshot hit. The way it was visualized, I automatically thought it was going to be quite grand. Before this, I had done the Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 title track and even that was well-received. Kaala Jaadu was a great follow through. I’m just happy with the song’s explosive success.

Instant Bollywood: Even the cinematography of this song was quite different. Did you experience anything new this time around, compared to your other songs?

Kartik: With every song and movie, I just look forward to something new. Thankfully, I got the opportunity to tap into a ‘dark zone’ for the first time with Kaala Jaadu; lyrically the song is quite dark. But we have the mix of dancing and storytelling as well, so this combination has worked brilliantly.

Instant Bollywood: Freddy is a very different role. Everyone has been accustomed to seeing you as the devoted friend Sonu or frustrated loverboy Rajat. But this scary Freddy is certainly a first. What was that ‘extra’ thing that went into your characterization of Freddy?

Kartik: There were lots of things that were touched upon in my workshops for Freddy; they went on for a long time. We delved deep into Freddy’s psyche, ‘how and what’ his inner thinking would be like, his talking mannerisms, whether he would be the sort to keep eye contact or not.

There are some people who live their lives in monotony, neglecting their self-care. I started enjoying the whole process and I’m happy with the way Freddy looks right now. Whenever one is in the middle of the process, they can only perceive the little changes they are going through. But when the full result is out, even like a teaser or a first glimpse, for the audience the whole thing looks entirely different.

Instant Bollywood: Another song from the movie – Tum Jo Milo, has been well-appreciated. Contrary to Kaala Jaadu, this song shows a different side to Freddy, something that is more wholesome and pure. 

Kartik: I love Tum Jo Milo and the pure, romantic love that Freddy has for Kainaaz and vice versa. We’ve created those moments carefully. The composition is also great, it makes you want to hum the song.

Instant Bollywood: Arijit Singh songs are present in almost all of your movies. Can we expect more such songs in your movies?

Kartik: 100 percent. He’s my favourite singer. I’m lucky that Arijit Singh sings for my movies and all those songs are a hit. Hope this combination continues in the future!

Instant Bollywood: What more songs can we expect from Freddy? 

Kartik: I won’t reveal much but there will be certain elements that will be showcased through music. More such songs will be coming soon that will make you think we have something unusual on our hands. Kaala Jaadu and Tum Jo Milo worked, so I’m sure the other tracks will be interesting to audience as well.

Instant Bollywood: Tum Jo Milo showed quite a pure side of Freddy. Can we expect ki Masoom Freddy bhi hai?

Kartik: 100 percent. He’s innocent as well…woh bhi uska ek side hai. Everything will be unveiled gradually…..
