Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan Trailer: Ayushmann Khurrana Says His Parents Watched It On ‘Loop’ And Loved Him Playing Gay
Ayushmann Khurrana has created a genre of his own that busts stereotypes and takes on social taboos. His choice of cinema and their subsequent box office success has made him a bonafide superstar in India today. The actor will now be seen in Anand L. Rai’s Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan that focusses on same-sex relationships in which he plays the role of a gay man. The trailer of the film received unanimous appreciation and people hailed Ayushmann to be the first leading hero to ever portray a role like this while industry stereotypes have prevented superstars to back such important subjects that can affect social change.

Ayushmann is thrilled that his parents, father P. Khurrana and mother Poonam, too loved the trailer of the film and revealed that they saw it ‘on loop’ and enjoyed it thoroughly. “When I showed them the trailer of the film, they absolutely loved it. They saw it on loop and laughed all the way through. I was thrilled with this reaction from them because I realized immediately that the subject, my character has appealed and connected with them,” says Ayushmann.
