Ayushmann Khurrana: Andhadhun was very challenging because it was a different character altogether

Ayushmann Khurrana, who gave us amazing movies like Andhadhun and Badhaai Ho in 2018 was felicitated with the Entertainer of the Year Award at the 14th edition of the prestigious India Business Leader Awards (IBLA) which was hosted by CNBC TV18.

Ayushmann Khurrana revealed that he wants his parents to get to work and much more.

 

He said:

“If given a choice between playing the characters that I did in Badhaai Ho or Andhadhun, I’d simply say Mom and Dad. Go for it!!!”

 

While both films were huge box-office successes as well as appreciated by masses and the critics too, it was playing two extremely opposite roles that brought the best out of Ayushmann. He further sheds some light which role of the two was the more challenging one.

 

“It’s difficult to choose between Badhaai Ho or Andhadhun. I guess both films were very different from each other. Personally, Andhadhun was very challenging because it was a different character altogether. I had to learn how to play a piano from scratch. On the other hand, Badhaai Ho was relatively easy for I knew how to portray the character.”

 

Ayushmann, who has crooned multiple songs in his career, picked out two films from the past with a musical theme as movies he’d like to have acted in.

 

“I can just take a few examples. Not from 2018 though. I’d probably say La La Land because it was related to piano and music. From Bollywood, I’d say Rockstar because Ranbir played a singer. That would have been a very gratifying role I’d have loved to play.”
