Ayushmann Khurrana gets candid about his films. The actor talks about the success and failure of his movies, and says he tries to remain focused on how he can make his next film work better at the box-office, instead of thinking about the failure.
Talking about the failure of ‘Meri Pyaari Bindu’ Ayushmann said, “In case of Meri Pyaari Bindu, it got stuck because of the release date. ‘Baahubali 2’ had just released and ‘Hindi Medium’ was to release the next week. In such cases, you have to be confident about the content. I still believe our film could have done better. ‘Shubh Mangal Saavdhan’ worked because it had a long run in theatres, as the next big release was ‘Judwaa 2’, which was only towards the end of the month. I guess we learn from our mistakes.”
The actor said,“Of course you feel bad when a film doesn’t do well. But as an artist, we can only give our best and make sure that our craft gets appreciated. Eventually, it has to connect with the masses. I feel, at the end of the day, it’s very subjective. For instance, ‘Meri Pyaari Bindu’, a lot of people liked it and some didn’t, so it got mixed reviews.”
Ayushmann Khurrana has been acted in many films so far, his debut movie was ‘Vicky Donor’ then he went on to do ‘Nautanki Saala’, Bewakoofiyan’, ‘Hawaizaada’, Dum Laga Ke Haisha’, Meri Pyaari Bindu’, ‘Bareilly Ki Barfi’ and ‘Shubh Mangal Saavdhan’. Some of his movies did very well but the others tanked at the box-office. If you go by his movie graph, the films leave him with a 50 percent success-failure ration. His two latest movies did really well at the box-office.
