Ayushmann Khurrana is a gentleman par excellence. Talking to him, you don’t feel you’re talking to a 100 crore star. He feels like a long-lost neighbour perhaps, an old friend who has suddenly become famous but is as courteous to you as before. Though you’re not borrowing a cup of sugar from him but are supposedly grilling him for that hot scoop. He laughs and lets you know that he doesn’t have any hot gossip to give. He’ll perhaps talk to you about the movie he has seen or a performance he has liked.
He’ll talk about the lighting and the decor but not about anyone’s bedroom secrets, including his own.

But as the project isn’t officially announced as yet, the star plays coy and brushes you off with a, “no comment,” with a smile, of course, and a promise to reveal all as soon as it’s all kosher. He’s as non-controversial as they come but he isn’t boring by any means. He has an intelligent take on everything under the sun and as you talk to him, you realise there are no masks, that the face he’s wearing is the original thing, and that ladies and gentlemen, is precious indeed…
