Following in his brother’s footsteps, Aparshakti Khurana has bagged a social comedy film that finally sees him as the lead actor. “Ayushmann [Khurrana] has been a flag bearer of such cinema. He loved the vibe of my trailer. I hope to continue the [trend],” says the actor of the film, Helmet, which talks about people’s resistance to buy condoms.
While Aparshakti was shocked to learn that only 5.6 per cent of Indian men use condoms, it was a bigger surprise to know “that this is the first [feature] film to be made on condoms worldwide, especially since people have been trying to break that monotony with content-driven cinema. [The idea of not practising safe sex] is obnoxious, and that is what sets Helmet apart”. Promising to keep it “light-hearted”, he says, “It is an entertaining outing that a family can watch together.” In the past, the Central Board of Film Certification has often omitted the use of the word, ‘condoms’ in films. However, “we didn’t get a single cut from the censor board”.
