Ayushmann Khurrana is currently busy promoting his next movie, Dream Girl 2 which is all set to release on 25 August. This film is a sequel of 2019 released Dream Girl in which Ayushmann played the role of a call center employee who used to talk to men in a female voice but in the sequel, Ayushmann will disguise himself as a woman in order to earn money.
In the first part, the female lead was played by Nushrratt Bharuccha but in the second part, Ananya Panday has been roped in for the female lead. However in the beginning, Ayushmann Khurrana was a little doubtful whether Ananya Panday would be able to play the character properly or not because she is from an urban background and the character that she has to play is from tier-2 city Mathura.
This is what Ayushmann said in an interview, “I was contemplating how Ananya, being someone with an urban background, would adapt to the setting of Mathura, a tier-2 city in India. To my surprise, she acclimated remarkably well. As we travel just 10 km in our country, the accent changes, and she nailed it perfectly with the accent.”
He further added, “For someone from Bombay, catching those varied accents can be challenging. I, on the other hand, can manage because I converse and think in Hindi. But she has done an exceptional job in the film. We’ve already seen this in her previous work, like Pati Patni Aur Woh (2019), where she had already acted in a film set in Uttar Pradesh.”
