"Dhamaka" features Aaryan as Arjun Pathak, a cynical ex-TV news anchor, who gets an alarming call on his radio show and sees it as a chance for a career comeback which may cost him his conscience. Aaryan said "Dhamaka" is truly an "edge-of-the-seat" movie. "I'm stoked and really happy that everybody is just loving it. It's a quick watch as it is just under two hours. It's truly an edge-of-the-seat thriller and it is set in one room with a 360 degree system where Ram sir had eight to 12 cameras while I was in that room at the studio," he added.

The success of 'Dhamaka' gives me validation as for the first time I was attempting a different genre. The acceptance that I have received... I'm really really happy. "People who are calling me Kartik 2.0, I want to tell them that they are in for a lot of surprises. I have selected some exciting projects like 'Dhamaka' and will keep trying my hand at different things," Aaryan said.
