EXCLUSIVE: Aayush Sharma clarifies ‘family is not a barrier’ as he talks about not working with Salman Khan: Shadow se bahar nikalna padega

Actor Aayush Sharma is gearing up for the release of his action-packed movie Ruslaan. The film has garnered good responses from the fans and now they are waiting to rock onscreen. Even though Aayush is growing in Bollywood, people still associate him as Salman Khan’s brother-in-law. Aayush started his career by starring in Salman Khan Films, Loveyatri. In fact, his second movie Antim: The Final Truth was also with Salman Khan and people assumed that he would continue doing movies with SKF. Reacting to people’s preconceived notions about working with family only, Aayush said that people think family is a barrier.

Aayush Sharma on not working with Salman Khan in Ruslaan

The Loveyatri actor mentioned that family was never a barrier but he aimed to work with different people. In an exclusive interview with Bollywood Bubble, Aayush said, “Many times, people have interpreted it as if family created the barrier but the barrier is not family, it comes from outside. Sometimes people think that I want to do movies produced by SKF. But I want to say that I desire to work with everyone. I’m starting with my journey, I’ve not reached that stage where I get to decide my movies, saying ‘I’ll do this movie and I’ll not do this movie’. I’m hungry for work. Like Sushri rightly mentioned, I want to play different roles, in different avenues. People have created a different perception of this barrier.“

“Even industry people think that I’m interested in doing films under Salman Khan’s production only. It’s not like that if they cast me in the movie then the entire family will get involved. This movie is proof that the entire movie was made without the family’s input. I’m excited that I got to learn something. No matter how many movies I do, I still feel I’m a student,” Salman Khan brother-in-law Aayush continued.

He further adds, “Kehte hai na ki jab aap shadow ke neeche rehte ho kahi na kahi suraj kam milta hai. Kabhi kabhi log kehte hai ki agar garmi se bachna chahte hai toh pedh ke neeche chale jaayein par pedh ke neeche dhoop bhi toh nahi milti toh podha pedh nahi ban pata. Agar mujhe pedh banna hai, toh mujhe shadow ke bahar nikalna padega, dhoop apne pe leni padegi. tabhi inshallah me pedh ban paunga.“
