Kartik Aaryan asks fans to get ‘ready for Freddy’ as he announces the movie’s OTT release

Almost one year ago, Kartik Aaryan had the release of his first film that came straight-to-OTT, Dhamaka. The Ram Madhvani directorial proved to be a game changer for the actor as usually seen as a comic or romantic hero, Kartik proved that he had much more potential left to be explored in him, with the film. He showed his intense side in Dhamaka and the audience loved this new Kartik Aaryan. Now, the actor is set to return to the digital medium with his next, Freddy coming straight-to-OTT as well.

Helmed by Veere Di Wedding director Shashanka Ghosh, Freddy features Kartik opposite Alaya F, and the genre and story of the film has been kept under wraps until now. The film also marks Alaya’s second outing on screen, close to three years after her debut in January 2020 in Jawaani Jaaneman. Taking to Instagram a few hours ago, Kartik announced that Freddy will be having a straight-to-digital premiere as he shared a black-and-white picture of himself sitting on a sofa chair, looking in the camera. He brought his signature sense of humour alive in the caption as he wrote, “Hottest Star on Hotstar… Kartik Aaryan… Disney+ Hotstar. Coming soon. #ReadyForFreddy (sic)”.
