Dream Girl 2: Ayushmann takes inspiration from Kishore Kumar for his role

Bollywood star Ayushmann Khurrana is reprising the role of the charming Dream Girl in the sequel to his blockbuster film.

On Kishore Kumar’s death anniversary, Ayushmann fondly remembers the icon of Indian cinema and reveals how he has taken inspiration from him in Dream Girl 2! 

Ayushmann Khurrana says, 

“Kishore Kumar was multi-talented and as an artist, I draw inspiration from him at every juncture. He has been my guru and his work inspires me to push boundaries and explore unchartered territories.”

He adds, 

“I have been listening to Kishore Da's wonderful track Aake Seedhi Lagi Dil Pe on loop since I have been shooting for Dream Girl 2. His voice is magical and he has effortlessly rendered both male and female voices for this song. It has helped me with massive inspiration."

A few days ago, the trailer of the film was released and it has generated a hype amongst the audinces. As the clip is about to end, Ananya Panday enters the frame and introduces herself as Pooja, which was also the name used by Ayushmann's character in the previous section of the movie, after introducing the film's impressive cast, which includes Annu Kapoor, Paresh Rawal, Vijay Raaz, Rajpal Yadav, Asrani, Manoj Joshi, Seema Pahwa, Manjot Singh, and Abhishek Banerjee.

Ayushmann Khurrana played a crucial role in the first chapter of the movie, which also starred Nushratt Bharuccha, Annu Kapoor, Vijay Raaz, and Manjot Singh. The movie was produced by Ekta Kapoor and directed by Raaj Shaandilyaa.

Ayushmann's film Dream Girl told the tale of Karamveer Singh (Ayushmann), a contact centre employee who pretends to be a phone pal named Pooja when speaking to customers.

The part 2 is all set to hit the big screens on 29th June, 2023.
