Ayushmann Khurrana talks about his upcoming movie ‘Bareilly Ki Barfi’

Known for his chocolate boy looks, actor Ayushmann Khurrana is all set to surprise his fans with his upcoming film ‘Bareilly Ki Barfi‘. Recently, the actor spoke about his look in the film and stated that he will be sporting a rustic look and will also be flaunting a muscular body.

Talking about it to an agency, Ayushmann Khurrana said, “It will be rustic look for me in the film. I will have to gain muscles. I had lost weight for ‘Meri Pyaari Bindu’ as I had to get rid of the muscles.” [sic]

Apparently, Ayushmann will essay the role of a publisher in the film. Talking about his character, the actor said, “He (character in the film) is a strong guy. Sometimes you meet people who can be like that character. For ‘Vicky Donor’, there was a combination of my brother and my friend as I am not like what I played in ‘Vicky Donor’. I am more subtle than what I was in ‘Vicky Donor’.”

“For ‘Dum Laga Ke Haisha’ I did not know anybody like that, so I was in Hyderabad for ten days and met a lot of people so I could draw that character. For ‘Bareilly Ki Barfi’, I have met people like my character,” added the actor.

This romantic comedy is directed by Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari, and also stars Kriti Sanon and Rajkummar Rao in the lead roles.

Reportedly, Kriti will essay the role of a girl, who runs a sweet shop in UP, while Rajkummar will be seen playing the part of an author.

“It’s a quirky romance dramedy. It’s a rustic film. It is for the first time I will be shooting in Lucknow and Bareilly, so, I am excited about it,” said Ayushmann.

The film may start rolling in the first week of October. Apart from this movie, Ayushmann Khurrana will be seen in ‘Meri Pyaari Bindu’ opposite Parineeti Chopra.
