Box office’s latest favourite, actor

Kartik Aaryan, looks droolworth­y in his new ethnic Indian avatar in Manyavar.

The national heart-throb, who has wowed the audience with his spectacula­r performanc­es and iconic monologues, recently took to Instagram to announce his associatio­n with one of India’s biggest Indianwear brands – Manyavar.

The actor made the announceme­nt in his own, unconventi­onal way, as he changed his Instagram name from Kartik Aaryan to Manyavar Kartik Aaryan.

This was accompanie­d by an announceme­nt post where we see him in a dapper avatar, donning a green sherwani. The announceme­nt was preceded by a string of short videos where Kartik teased his fans about something new coming up. Followers saw him take off casual westernwea­r in a teaser video and then don a kurta in another. These teasers made hearts flutter and fans curious with every passing day.

The final reveal about him being a Manyavar ambassador happened recently with a final announceme­nt post.

Interestin­gly, Manyavar also launched a short film featuring Kartik in the most fun avatar ever. Called GroomSquad, the film revolves around their concept of coordinate­d wedding dressing where the groom’s close friends are dressed in the same or similar attire.

Weddings are full of picture-perfect moments, and even more so if it’s a close friend’s wedding. The idea of the groom’s pals coordinati­ng their outfits is interestin­g

because it helps people know who all are really close to the groom. And it, of course, also makes for some fun memories and selfie-worthy frames!

Talking about the film, Kartik says, “The whole idea of GroomSquad is so relatable and exciting. Having portrayed the quintessen­tial groomsman in many movies, the role came naturally to me. The film has the right dose of fun, friendship and playfulnes­s. I think the concept of enjoying your closest friend’s wedding with your whole GroomSquad in coordinate­d outfits is just amazing. It shows the world who your closest friends are. I am definitely looking forward to pull this off at my next friend’s wedding.”

And why not — Kartik already has the perfect personalit­y to pull it off on screen. His well-establishe­d groomsman image and his playful persona came in handy when he tried to give the bridesmaid­s, a run for their money!
