Actress Anu Aggarwal, who rose to fame with the original ‘Aashiqui’, has shared her thoughts on the new leads of the franchise’s third installment.
Speaking about Kartik Aaryan and Sreeleela headlining ‘Aashiqui 3,’ she expressed that the duo should feel grateful for being chosen to carry forward such an iconic legacy. When asked what advice she would give to actors joining a project like Aashiqui, Anu Aggarwal told IANS, “I’d say this, not out of arrogance, whether it’s about me, Mahesh Bhatt’s films, or even T-Series—anyone who joins Aashiqui is becoming part of a legacy. And when you step into a legacy, half your battle is already won. A huge audience will come to watch you purely because it carries the Aashiqui name. That’s why newcomers should feel grateful and respectful toward the opportunity they`ve been given.”
