Ayushmann Khurrana who has done some challenging roles and has time and again taken tricky scripts be it ‘Dum Laga Ke Haisha’ or ‘Shubh Mangal Saavdhan’ he has always done different kinds of role, he has given the credit to his wife for this, as she takes the interest to read his scripts and they then later discuss about it at length. Tahira Kashyap has loved all the scripts so far as well. The actor always discusses his films with his family as well.
Ayushmann said, “My wife is a great support when it comes to reading tricky scripts because she is also a writer, so that helps. Whenever I get a script, I read it first but I make it a point that Tahira reads it too after me. Thankfully, she has loved all my scripts so far, more so because she is an artist herself. She writes and she’s been teaching journalism and mass communication in colleges. It’s better to do unconventional. She appreciates the path that I have chosen as an actor.”
The actor further added, “Once she’s done reading the script, we discuss it at length. Difference of opinion happens a lot of times but we measure pros and cons and see the potential of the script in totality. So, if she’s suggested any changes, I check with the writer and director if some things can be dropped. You see, it also depends on how the other person is and if they like your idea.”
Ayushmann concluded by saying, “It’s really cool back home. Thankfully, we happen to be progressive enough and it’s good to address taboos in our society. People are interested in such films. They don’t talk about them in open, but they want to. Maybe after watching the films, they have started to talk openly about the subjects.”
On the work front, Ayushmann Khurrana is currently shooting for his next ‘Shoot the Piano Player’
