Ayushmann Khurrana’s Dream Girl 2 is all set to hit theatres on August 25. Recently, the actor, known for choosing unconventional roles, revealed the inspiration behind choosing to essay the role of a crossdresser in his upcoming film.
According to a report by IANS, Ayushmann said, “True disruptors of cinema are my cinematic inspirations and what Kamal Haasan sir did in Chachi 420, Aamir Khan sir did in Baazi and Govinda sir did in Aunty No. 1 are truly defining moments for an actor. I was mesmerised and blown away, looking at how brilliant they are to pull off playing a woman on screen. It was mind-boggling, to say the least.”
