Kartik Aaryan talks about being compared to the OG Akshay Kumar in 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2', says 'it's too big a shoe to fill'

Kartik Aaryan and Kiara Advani launched the much-promising trailer of Anees Bazmee's Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 this afternoon. The film, which is a sequel to the 2007 hit of the same name, stars Tabu and Rajpal Yadav as well. Akshay Kumar, Vidya Balan, Ameesha Patel and Shiney Ahuja starred in the original movie. Now, taking the legacy ahead are Kiara and Kartik who are playing roles similar to Akshay and Vidya. 

Talking about being compared to the legendary AK, who played the role of Dr. Aditya Shrivastav, in the original movie, Kartik said at the trailer launch event, "I didn't want to make any comparisons because it's too big a shoe to fill. I have loved him (Akshay Kumar) in Bhool Bhulaiyaa. We have all loved him and grown up watching him and so it will be better if no one compares me to him. I love him as an actor."
