Ayushmann Khurrana

What I admire most about Ayushmann Khurrana is his refusal to play it safe. Rising from VJ and singing gigs in Chandigarh, he built a career out of awkward, taboo-tinged stories about ordinary men, from Vicky Donor to Andhadhun, and turned discomfort into mainstream box office. That is a rarer kind of stardom than the glamour route. The fact that he sweeps Filmfare honors for both acting and playback singing tells you this is genuine versatility, not marketing. For me, his name on a poster is a reliable signal that the film has something thoughtful to say beneath the laughs.
