Kartik Aaryan + K-Army = FANtertainment at its best at 23rd Zee Cine Awards 2025

Indian cinema took centre stage in a spectacular fashion at the Maruti Suzuki presents 23rd Zee Cine Awards 2025 — a night that celebrated talent, emotion, and the enduring bond between stars and their fans. Among the most talked-about moments? Kartik Aaryan’s showstopping, full-throttle performance that redefined stage magic and raised the bar for FANtertainment.

Making a dramatic aerial entry from the ceiling, fan-favourite Kartik descended straight into the spotlight, instantly commanding the crowd’s attention. He opened with a soul-stirring duet of ‘Tu Hi Yaar Mera’ with Ananya Panday, their undeniable chemistry setting the tone for a heartfelt yet electric act.

But that was just the beginning. What followed was a whirlwind of energy and charisma as heartthrob Kartik hit the dance floor with a troupe of spirited kids- his beloved K-Army. Their playful synergy lit up the stage, adding warmth and joy to the high-octane spectacle. Taking it up a notch, Kartik jumped onto a moving bus that cruised across the arena while he danced to his chartbusters like ‘Satyanaas’, ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 title track’ and ‘Haan Main Galat’, igniting cheers with every beat.

Kartik said, “This wasn’t just another performance. It was a tribute to everyone who’s been part of my journey — especially my fans. Personally for me, dancing with my K-Army was the real highlight. Their energy lit up the performance in a way nothing else could.”

Seamlessly blending spectacle with sentiment, Kartik’s act was a tribute not just to his journey from rising star to box-office mainstay, but also to the fans who made it possible. With his trademark charm, magnetic screen presence, and smooth dance moves, Kartik reminded everyone exactly why he’s one of the most loved performers in Indian cinema today.
