Ayushmann Khurrana: 2018 was a dream year for me

Ayushmann Khurrana couldn’t have asked for a better 2018. Both his releases last year, AndhaDhun and Badhaai Ho, were commercially successful and his performances in the films were appreciated by the audience, as well as the critics. The actor started his career with films that had unique storylines and today, he has emerged as the face of content-driven cinema in India.
Talking about the year gone by, Ayushmann says, “2018 was a dream year for me.I feel nothing, but gratitude and validation as an actor and artiste. I have always believed that content is king and have chosen subjects that were off the beaten track because I wanted to give the audience something unique, something that makes them curious to go and watch a film in the theatre. I chose these films because they were hugely entertaining and simply good cinema. It feels great that your choices and beliefs are validated. It has been the best year of my life till now.”
It is not every day that an outsider becomes a popular name in Bollywood. Ayushmann has managed to do that with his acting skills and his instinct in choosing unconventional scripts. Ayushmann adds, “It is not easy to be an outsider and find your feet in Bollywood. I’ve been lucky that some of the best directors believed in me and I’m thankful to the audience for accepting me and allowing me to entertain them. I will continue doing so.”
