Ayushmann Khurrana has truly arrived in Bollywood after giving two back-to-back hits in 2018 with AndhaDhun and Badhaai Ho. From playing a blind pianist to a 25-year-old young man coming to terms with his parents’ middle-aged pregnancy the actor handled both the roles with aplomb. He is all geared up for his next film opposite Bhumi Pednekar. Directed by Amar Kaushik, Bala is a film that will see Ayushmann play a prematurely balding man.
The film is supposed to go on floors in March, but the media is abuzz with reports that Ayushmann will shave his head for the role. Talking about the same to a leading tabloid, Ayushmann said, “If there is a need (to go bald), I will go for it. Physical transformation is imperative for any character that you play on screen. On my part, there will be no hiccups.”
Well, knowing what a meticulous actor he is we are sure that he will leave no stone unturned in essaying the role to the best of his abilities. However, he is also supposed to put on weight for the film. Talking about the look in his film, Ayushmann said, “We have yet to zero down on the final look. We are figuring out what will go well with the character, including the weight of the person.”
This will be the third film where Bhumi and Ayushmann are reuniting on screen. Previous to Bala they have done Dum Laga Ke Haisha and Shubh Mangal Savdhaan. Ayushmann will also be seen in Dream Girl opposite Nushra Bharucha.
