Director Kabir Khan has expressed high praise for the talented young actor, stating, “Kartik pays close attention to the director's guidance. Given that Chandu Champion is a biopic about a real-life hero, it was crucial for Kartik to stay true to the character's essence. He accomplished this throughout the filming process, and I was thoroughly impressed with his portrayal in Chandu Champion.

In his captivating role, Kartik Aaryan brings a unique flair to his character, reminiscent of the finest performances seen in top-tier biopics featuring the world's best actors. His transformative performance demonstrates that one does not require external validation to excel in their field; all that is needed is raw talent and determination. Murlikant Petkar would certainly agree.

Despite Murlikant Petkar's remarkable accomplishments being relatively unknown to the public, Chandu Champion sheds light on his extraordinary journey. It’s surprising to witness such impressive feats being meticulously depicted on screen. This is how a biopic should be crafted: honoring a remarkable life without excessive dramatization.

Kartik embodies Murli with a performance that radiates hard work and dedication.

Recently, there has been a surge of biopics focusing on both celebrated and lesser-known heroes, including politicians, gangsters, and athletes. Chandu Champion tells the story of an underdog's rise to success, skillfully navigating through familiar themes while ensuring that the narrative remains fresh and engaging.

Veteran actor Shatrughan Sinha remarked, “I anticipate Kartik will sweep all awards, including the National Award for Chandu Champion. Here is an actor from outside the industry who has demonstrated that one does not need a godfather to achieve greatness in Hindi cinema.”
