The audience curiously waited to see the Vicky Donor actor in a never-seen-before avatar. He shared a few reasons to do this film. In an exclusive interview with mid-day, the National Award-winning actor said, "I always want to do something different, something that is out-of-the-box. Dream Girl completely ticked all the right boxes for me."
Spilling some beans about the concept, Ayushmann had said, "Not only is it unique but also quirky at the same time. Dream Girl also underlines gender neutrality, where a guy is playing a woman. And the concept is very relatable. It's nothing new. Traditionally, in Ram Leela and all these folklore, plays or theatre, most of the actors who play female characters are males. This is the story about that guy."
Dream Girl is directed by Raaj Shaandilyaa, produced by Shobha Kapoor, Ekta Kapoor's Balaji Telefilms. It released on September 13, 2019.
