Actor Kartik Aaryan is all set to appear in a never seen before avatar in his upcoming film 'Freddy'. He usual stars in comedic or romantic roles but in 'Freddy', he will be seen portraying a lonely and obsessed dentist who has no friends. Recently, Kartik took to Instagram to share a video describing how he prepped for this totally new kind of character.

He captioned the video, "From gaining 14 kilos to visiting a real clinic and learning skills from a dentist, being #Freddy has been a journey I will never forget... Forgetting my true self as Freddy while pushing my limits mentally and physically got changed. It was a pleasure working with an amazing team for this challenging on-screen transformation."

Revealing more about his character preparation, Kartik had shared, "I literally dwelled in the world of Freddy while shooting the film.It was important for me to remain in that headspace and go to the set and perform.I got disturbing nights because of 'Freddy' but it was important to be focused on the bigger picture and tried to curtail my regular activities while shooting Freddy so that I could focus on the film and the character.Post the wrap, I connected with my friends and family who keep me grounded and that helped me return to reality and normalcy again."
