Ayushmann Khurrana is known and admired for his choice of films as they always carry a social message besides being utterly funny and entertaining. The National Award-winning actor will soon be seen in the shoes of a man who undergoes premature balding in Dinesh Vijan's Bala. Directed by Amar Kaushik, Bala also stars Bhumi Pednekar and Yami Gautam in pivotal roles. The film is all set to hit theatres on November 7, 2019.
The makers of the film dropped the trailer of the film on October 10, making it an exciting Thursday for Ayushmann fans. Here are five things we absolutely loved in the trailer and why we think Bala is a must-watch.

Ayushmann Khurrana and Bhumi Pednekar were seen together in the hit film Dum Laga Ke Haisha, which followed the journey of a man married to an overweight woman. The film won accolades for the social message it promoted as well as for Ayushmann and Bhumi's performances. Now that the pair is back with their sizzling on-screen chemistry, we can't wait to watch the film.
Besides Ayushmann Khurrana, Bhumi Pednekar and Yami Gautam, Bala also features a stellar cast including Saurabh Shukla, Javed Jaffrey, and Manoj Pahwa. Rest assured, this cast is going to create quite a hilarious ruckus in the film!
As pretty much always, Ayushmann Khurrana has chosen another film that boasts of solid content. While Ayushmann plays the role of a man who is balding, Bhumi will play the role of a dusky small-town girl at odds with a society that is obsessed with fair skin. Ayushmann's recent films, Article 15 and Dream Girl, were massive hits and both these films, too, had the kind of content that was suitable for all age groups and everyone could take away something from them.
Bala being an Ayushmann Khurrana film, it sure will be hilarious. The trailer itself is quite entertaining and Ayushmann shines in his role as a balding man. Bhumi Pednekar and Yami Gautam are brilliant in the trailer, too. We'll have to wait and watch just what else the cast has in store for us.
Dinesh Vijan has backed successful films in the past such as Hindi Medium, Badlapur, Love Aaj Kal, Cocktail, and Stree. So him producing Bala is reason enough to go and watch the film!
Ayushmann's last movie outing, Dream Girl, which released on September 13, received positive responses from the critics and audience. Now, apart from Bala, Ayushmann Khurrana has Gulabo Sitabo with Amitabh Bachchan and Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan with Bhumi Pednekar in the pipeline.
