In a delightful blend of promotion and entertainment, actors Kartik Aaryan and Rajpal Yadav recently captivated social media with their uproarious antics on the sets of the much-anticipated movie, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3. The duo, known for their impeccable comic timing, took on their iconic roles of Rooh Baba and Chhote Pandit to promote the upcoming film ‘Chandu Champion.’ The promotional effort has not only amped up the excitement for both movies but also delighted fans with a nostalgic nod to their beloved characters.
The story of ‘Chandu Champion’ promises to be as captivating as the promotion itself. Helmed by the acclaimed director Kabir Khan, the film is based on the extraordinary real-life story of a sportsman. Kartik Aaryan will take on the challenging role of Chandu, a character that promises to showcase an indomitable spirit and resilience.
Kartik Aaryan, who is known for his dedication to his roles, went through an intense physical transformation to get into the skin of his character. Recently, the actor stunned his fans and followers by revealing the extent of his transformation for the role. Kabir Khan, in a heartfelt Instagram post, shared posters of Kartik’s journey, revealing that the actor lost a staggering 32 per cent of body fat with no steroids.
Kabir Khan’s Instagram post read, “Chandu Nahi… Champion Hai Mai… The story of Chandu Champion is an incredibly inspiring true story, but the journey that Kartik went through to become this champion is no less inspiring. I met him when he had put on weight for a role. He had 39 per cent body fat. I told him that he had to portray an international-level multi-disciplinary sportsperson. He just smiled and said ‘I will do it Sir’.
. A year and a half later with no use of steroids – something that he was adamant about – we took this photo on set. Body fat 7 per cent! I’m proud of you @kartikaaryan.”
This extraordinary transformation has only added to the anticipation surrounding ‘Chandu Champion.’ The poster featuring Kartik, donned in boxing gloves with a fierce look, has further intensified the buzz around the film, which is set to hit theatres on June 14.
Amidst this excitement, Kartik Aaryan and Rajpal Yadav’s promotional antics have taken social media by storm. On Sunday, Kartik dropped a fun video on his Instagram account, featuring himself alongside Rajpal Yadav. The duo, dressed in their iconic attires of Rooh Baba and Chhote Pandit, respectively, performed the signature step of ‘Satyanaas’ against the backdrop of a sleek black Range Rover. This comical act was aimed at promoting ‘Chandu Champion’ while evoking the nostalgia of Bhool Bhulaiyaa fans.
Kartik’s post was accompanied by a playful caption, “Rooh Baba aur Chhota Pandit ne bhi kar diya #Satyanaas!! #ChanduChampionxBhoolBhulaiyaa3 #ChanduChampion #14thJune.” The video quickly went viral, with fans flooding the comment section with their excitement and appreciation for the actors’ unique promotional strategy.

Another fan added, “Chandu Champion x Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 wahh.” A third fan humorously noted, “Itna confusion ho jata hai ki Chandu Champion ke liye excited hoon ya Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3,” expressing their mixed emotions of excitement for both the films.
The promotion strategy of blending the two films has clearly worked, creating a buzz not just for ‘Chandu Champion,’ but also ramping up the anticipation for Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3.
