Rajkummar Rao, Ayushmann Khurrana and Kriti Sanon starrer Bareilly Ki Barfi has been garnering good reviews from the critics and audience as well.
Recently in an interview, Ayushmann said, “I’ve never done a two-hero film and its okay to do it. In Vicky Donor, Annu Kapoor, I thought, had a more author-backed role than me. But he wasn’t my contemporary, Rajkummar is. But if the script is good, then why not. Once in a while, it’s good to do a two-hero film.”
He added, “I love him (Rajkummar) as a person and an actor. I was the one who suggested his name for the character. His role is more author-backed than mine. I knew he will get all the good reviews for acting in the film. I won’t be surprised if they say ‘he stole the show’ because his role is like that, the transition from a meek to an aggressive guy. I trigger that change but he is doing it.”
“We are similar in a way but the kind of films we’ve done is slightly different. He has done mostly alternate cinema, I’ve done a mix of both. My films are somewhere in between good commercial success and are also content-based," the actor also said.
“I’ve always looked up to Rajkummar because he is so versatile. He changes so much in every film, which isn’t easy. He has brought this film (Bareilly Ki Barfi) to another level. Selfishly, I feel you should have great actors as eventually, if a film succeeds, everyone wins,” Ayushmann concluded by saying.
