From playing a sperm donor in his debut film to playing a righteous police officer solving a rape case in his last outing, Ayushmann Khurrana has had a brilliant journey in Bollywood.
He is now gearing up for the release of his next film, Dream Girl. And just like his any other movie outing, Dream Girl is no different. In the romantic comedy, Ayushmann essays the role of a young man imitating female voices which leads to hilarious results. A fortnight ago, the makers dropped the trailer which was lauded by the critics and audience alike. The movie also stars Pyar ka Punchnama actress Nushrat Bharucha.
In a very funny video posted by the makers of the film on their official handle, Sanjay Dutt is seen calling Pooja and asking him to meet him on 13th September, when the film releases. Sanjay Dutt is heard saying in the video, "Hello Pooja Kaisi ho, Aree Sanju bol Raha hu, Aree 50 Tola.. 50 Tola, Haa Sanju Baba, Kaisi ho, acha yeh Batao kab mil Rahi ho, 13 tareekh?. 13 Tareekh done, Pakka Naaa?, Ae Camera Bandh kar, Bandh kar, Ok Pooja 13 ko Milte hai, Love You!"
Balaji motion pictures also took to their official handle and tweeted, "Baba bhi Pooja pe lattu? Bole toh, tumhare alawa Pooja ke pichu bhot log deewane hai! Aarahi hai Pooja!."
