BO numbers boost confidence
With one hit after another to his credit, Ayushmann Khurrana says good box office numbers give him the courage to do films with a social message.
With one hit after another to his credit, Ayushmann Khurrana says good box office numbers give him the courage to do films with a social message.
'Bareilly Ki Barfi', 'Shubh Mangal Saavdhan', 'Badhaai Ho' and 'AndhaDhun' have all done well for him in recent times. The actor has taken a career turn to do 'Article 15', an investigative drama about discrimination.
"After doing good box office numbers with four back-to-back films, as an artiste and as an actor, you get the courage to do a film which has a certain social responsibility that can make the nation think," Ayushmann said in a statement.
"I wanted to do something very relevant to society and to Indians, and not think about how much money it will make. For me, this has never been the benchmark for good cinema.
Good cinema can also evoke a discussion and a dialogue and with this film my attempt is to do just that."
