    "Because I didn't know anyone so I used to search for it, I used to type keywords like 'actors required' or 'casting calls' on Facebook and Google," he added.


    Kartik opened up about his journey in Bollywood when he appeared on Karan Johar's chat show 'Koffee with Karana', which is aired on Star World, read a statement.


    When Karan further asked if his parents approved of his career decision, he said: "Mummy, Papa didn't want me to become an actor."
