Kartik Aaryan invited by President Murmu for 'At Home Reception' this Independence Day
Mumbai, Aug 14
Bollywood actor Kartik Aaryan has been invited by President Droupadi Murmu to attend the prestigious 'At Home Reception' on 15th August at Rashtrapati Bhavan in New Delhi.
The 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3' actor will be a part of the high-profile gathering hosted by the President during the 80th Independence Day.
It must be noted that Kartik is the only actor from Bollywood to attend the prestigious gathering, joining the distinguished invitees.
For those who do not know, the 'At Home Reception' is a formal gathering hosted by the President of India where prominent names from various walks of life, including national leaders, armed forces personnel, sportspersons, artists and notable achievers, come together under a single roof.
This invitation for Kartik has come after he was recently honored with the 'Best Actor' title at the 72nd National Film Awards for his performance in Kabir Khan's much-appreciated sports drama 'Chandu Champion'.
In July, Kartik shared a special family moment on social media when his name was announced as the winner of a National Award.
He took to his official Instagram handle and uploaded a video of himself watching the live announcement of the National Film Awards alongside his family.
As his name was announced as the winner for 'Best Actor' for 'Chandu Champion,' Kartik immediately broke into a scream of joy. The clip further went on to show Kartik's parents sharing the proud moment with their son by hugging and congratulating him on his latest achievement.
Kartik's mother even adorably planted a kiss on his cheek, in a moment of pure joy.
Expressing his excitement, Kartik had written on the photo-sharing app, "Still processing... Some moments are simply bigger than words, and this is one of them. A dream I've carried for years has finally come true. Forever humbled, forever grateful...Best Actor National Award #ChanduChampion 🇮🇳."

This is a proud moment for Indian cinema. But I hope he uses this platform responsibly. The youth looks up to him, and being at Rashtrapati Bhavan is not just an honour, it's a responsibility. All the best to him! 🙏
His reaction video when he found out about the National Award was so genuine and heartwarming. Seeing his parents' pride in that moment made me emotional too. Bollywood needs more grounded stars like him. 😊
It's great to see talent being recognized at the national level. I've been following Kartik's journey since his Pyaar Ka Punchnama days, and his growth has been remarkable. Well-deserved honour!
Good for him, but I wish more actors who are doing meaningful cinema get such recognition. Anyway, Chandu Champion was indeed a fantastic film, and Kartik proved his versatility as an actor. Happy Independence Day to everyone!
From a small town boy to Rashtrapati Bhavan – what an inspiring journey! His hard work and dedication are truly commendable. This will motivate so many young actors who are struggling to make it in the industry. 🎉👏
Happy Independence Day to all Indians! This is a wonderful recognition of Indian cinema's growing global influence
