EXCLUSIVE: Ayushmann Khurrana on Dream Girl 2: “Joh Gadar 2 ki audience hain, woh hi iski audience hai. Aap logic nahi laga sakte ismein”

Dream Girl 2 is a family entertainer starring Ayushmann in the characters of Karam and Pooja. With the opening first day collection of Rs. 10.69 crores, the film has given Ayushmann the biggest opening of his career. The film has collected Rs. 67 crores in the domestic market. The actor is quite elated about it. However, the actor also addresses that it is not for those who watch movies with a magnifying glass.

In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Ayushmann Khurrana said, “Ek baat mere mann mein clear thi ki yeh film unn logon ke liye hain hi nahi joh magnifying glass leke baithe hain. Yeh clear tha. Agar woh aap dimag se nikaal de….This is for the outright massy comedy commercial single-screen small-town audience. Joh Gadar 2 ki audience hain, woh hi iski audience hai. Aap logic nahi laga sakte ismein, (This film is not for them who will be watching it with a magnifying glass. If you take that out of the mind... this film is an outright massy entertainer and has the same audience which is also watching Gadar 2, you cannot put logic in this).”

He added, “Ismein aap intricacies mein nahi ja sakte. Waise koi message nahi hain film ke andar. But dekha jaye toh it's also inclusive enough. Matlab halka sa LGBTQ chhoo ke jati hain. Joh Abhishek Banerjee ka character last mein bolta hain, ‘Love is love.’ There's an acceptance. There is a Muslim family jinki shadi ek Sardar se ho rahi hain, ek Hindu se ho rahi hain. Toh joh desi janta hai, unko toh lagega yeh progressive hain. Par joh magnifying glass le ke baithe hain, wo galtiyan nikaal sakte hain. Unke liye ye film hain hi nahi. (In Dream Girl 2, you cannot go into intricacies. There is no message in the film despite it trying to be progressive. It slightly touches upon LGBTQ topic in the form of Abhishek Banerjee's character. There is a Muslim family which is getting their daughter married to a Sardar and a Hindu. So for the desi audience, this film will feel progressive but for others sitting with a magnifying glass, it won't).”

The actor said that as long as a movie like Dream Girl 2 works, he can go ahead and have the courage to work on movies like Andhadhun, Article 15 and An Action Hero.
