Ayushmann Khurrana on How He Chooses His Films
Sharing his perspective on what draws him to a film, Ayushmann said, “For me, the story always comes first. I enjoy choosing scripts that I can break new ground with, stories that offer a certain novelty and explore something that hasn't been seen on screen before. I may have played several characters who are typically North Indian, but what attracts me to a film is that every story is different and every concept brings something new to the table. For me, the real star of a film is the script, not the actor.” ‘Udta Teer’ Release Rescheduled: Ayushmann Khurrana Film to Now Arrive in Theatres on THIS Date.
