Satyaprem Ki Katha director Sameer Vidwans on the famous 'chappal sequence': Kartik Aryan started crying, it gave me goosebumps

His recently released film Satyaprem Ki Katha is ruling the box office, and Kartik Aaryan is receiving a lot of love. Sameer Vidwans, the director of the film, recalled a crucial scene that received a lot of applause at theatres.

In a recent video interview with Filmy Shilmy, the director said, "The intensity with which Kartik performed one scene left me surprised. We were shooting the 'chappal sequence' from different angles. After the shot, Kartik told me that he wanted to re-perform this scene, and if I didn't like it, I could remove it during the editing. He reshot the sequence in which he beats a man with a chappal, and then he suddenly started crying. The moment he started crying, everyone on set got goosebumps."

Sameer also said that after wrapping up the sequence, he asked the actor what triggered him to cry like that in the scene. Kartik told Sameer that it just happened, and tears flowed from within.

"The way audiences have cheered and whistled for Kartik on that scene is all because of him," added Sameer.

Satyaprem Ki Katha also stars Gajraj Rao, Supriya Pathak, and Shikha Talsania. It is currently in theatres.

Kartik recently flew to London for the shoot of his next film with Kabir Khan, ‘Chandu Champion’. He also has 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3' and a love story helmed by Anurag Basu in the pipeline.
