Kartik Aaryan seems to have taken over Delhi — and how. The actor has been in the capital lately shooting for one of his upcoming films, and his multiple public appearances have left fans both thrilled and curious. After being spotted at Laxmi Nagar and later at the iconic Kwality Restaurant, Kartik was recently seen filming at Delhi’s bustling Connaught Place. What caught everyone’s attention, however, was the scale of the scene. Pictures circulating online show Kartik leading what appears to be a pride parade.
Clips and photos from the shoot quickly surfaced on social media, prompting netizens to ask, “What exactly is happening?”

Just days earlier, the actor had been mobbed by fans at the Laxmi Nagar Metro Station, where he was reportedly shooting for his upcoming film Naagzilla. The sighting caused a frenzy, with large crowds gathering to catch a glimpse of him. A video from the location went viral, even leading to brief traffic slowdowns in the surrounding area. Fans were seen chanting his name, while Kartik acknowledged them by waving towards them.
Amid the hectic shoot schedule, the actor also took some time off to dine at Kwality, one of Connaught Place’s oldest restaurants. Photos of him enjoying a meal with friends were shared by the restaurant’s official Instagram page and quickly made the rounds online.
Kartik was last seen in Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri alongside Ananya Panday. The Karan Johar-produced film, however, failed to make an impact at the box office. Up next, the actor has an interesting slate lined up. He will be seen in Anurag Basu’s next, and Naagzilla, backed by Karan Johar and helmed by Mrighdeep Singh Lamba, best known for directing the popular Fukrey franchise.
