Actor
Ayushmann Khurrana, who will be seen as a visually impaired piano player in
Sriram Raghavan’s untitled thriller, will be delivering few lines in
Marathi
in the film, according to a tabloid.
The filmmaker wants him to speak in Marathi since Ayushmann’s character lives in Pune. A source close to the actor informed, “Ayush mann loves Marathi language and he is thrilled that he got an opportunity to learn it. Sriram feels this is critical to make the character extremely real in its setting.”
Interestingly, the filmmaker had also made
Varun Dhawan speak a few dialogues in Marathi in the film— 'Badlapur'. "He likes his characters to blend in with the setting. Ayushmann also wanted to be perfect and so is taking diction lessons before the shoot,” the source adds. Ayushmann had earlier learnt Bengali during 'Meri Pyaari Bindu', as his character hailed from Kolkata.
