Ayushmann Khurrana’s films invariably have a fresh and distinct voice, a feature that he attributes to the new directors he collaborates with. This year, the actor is set to team up with another debutante director, Anubhuti Kashyap for Doctor G that sees him play a gynaecologist. With the social comedy slated to go on floors in April, Khurrana says he is eager to see how she brings forth a new story. “Anubhuti is a restless storyteller who has an extraordinary vision with this film. I hope we will be able to present something unique and immensely entertaining for the audience,” he says. 

In his nine-year career, Khurrana has steadily thrown his weight behind first-time directors, choosing raw talent over refined eye, potential over prominent names. If he lent his face to Akshay Roy’s Meri Pyaari Bindu (2017), he also joined forces with Raaj Shaandilyaa and Hitesh Kewalya to give us Dream Girl (2019) and Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan (2020).
