Kartik Aaryan is currently promoting his new action-drama film, Shehzada. Slated to release on February 17, 2023, Shehzada serves as a remake of the 2020 Telugu film Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo, starring Kriti Sanon and Aaryan. The actor has been touring to promote his film for the past few days, and his latest stop was Dubai. He shared a couple of snippets from his trip, and one of them featured a sweet treat that was super relatable to us. Kartik shared a video of him at a Turkish ice cream stall. For the unfamiliar, the Turkish ice cream trick is famous for the way it is presented, where the vendors make their customers reach for a cone before pulling it away and continuing the trick. The ice cream prank is a tradition in Turkey, wherein the sticky ice cream is made with orchids to give it a "gummy" texture that allows it to be thrown around without spilling. Haven’t many of us been subject to this trick in India as well?
Now, when Kartik reached out to get a taste of the ice cream, he was treated to the same tradition. In the video, we can see the vendor tease and play around with the actor for a long time before finally handing him the cone full of chocolate ice cream. The actor, just like most of us, struggles to grab the ice cream cone. The vendor takes the ice cream right in front of him and suddenly pulls it away. Then there comes a moment when Kartik ends up biting a piece of tissue paper instead of the ice cream. Aaryan is seen looking relieved after finally having the ice cream! Take a look at a snippet from the video:
In the video, we could hear the latest song, "Chedkhaniyan," from his upcoming movie, and he also wrote in the caption, "Itni #Chedkhaniyan ki isne ki bhook hi mar gayi," meaning, "After being played with so many tricks, I don't feel hungry anymore." His hashtags read "Dubai," "Shehzada," and "Sugarfree."
Kartik’s treat in Dubai is definitely making us crave some ice cream, isn’t it?
