Tahira Kashyap Asks Son If He’s Ok With Dad Ayushmann Starring In A Gay Love Story, His Response Left Her Teary Eyed

Ayushmann Khurrana has set out to make the world a more accepting and understanding place with every movie he signs. Be doing stories on sperm donation, mimicking antics of a woman or now breaking taboos about homosexuality the actor keeps bringing back more and more interesting concepts to entertain the audiences.

With Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan, a gay love story, on the horizon the actor’s wife Tahira Kashyap had a word with their 8-year-old Virajveer about the subject of the film as she wanted to be forthcoming. On asking him what homosexuality means she learnt he already knew and to her pride and joy he asked her what was not ok about it when she asked him if he was.

Sharing her experience Tahira wrote on Twitter, “With the upcoming film the dad is doing, I wanted to be forthcoming with my 8 year old son. I asked him if he knows what homosexuality means or being gay means. He knew it. I asked him if he was ok with it. He replied...what’s there not be ok about. (Teary eyed and proud).”

Ayushmann was also asked recently how his parents felt about the trailer of Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan and the actor told Mid-Day in an interview, “When I showed them the trailer of the film, they absolutely loved it. They saw it on loop and laughed all the way through. I was thrilled with this reaction from them because I realized immediately that the subject, my character has appealed and connected with them.”

Shubh Mangal Saavdhan also starring Jitendra Kumar is all set to release on 21 February, 2020.
