Ayushmann Khurrana: I personally love Priyanka Chopra’s voice

In Dream Girl, Ayushmann Khurrana will be seen playing the role of a guy working in a call centre where he talks to people in a female voice with the name Pooja. A lot of men and even a woman fall in love with Pooja and then, of course, a lot of funny chaos happens in the film. The trailer of Dream Girl has impressed one and all, and everyone is waiting for it to hit the screens on 13th September 2019.

Ayushmann, himself has dubbed for the female voice in the movie. While talking to a tabloid, he revealed that while the shooting of the film was going on, the film’s team was thinking of having an actress dub for the female voice or a voiceover artist. During the shooting, the actor too gave his best to speak in a female voice. Ayushmann says, “Since I was 80 percent there, I thought of giving it a try, then, if things didn’t work out, we could try getting an actress or a good voiceover artist on board too. I personally love Priyanka Chopra’s voice.”


Talking about dubbing in the female voice, the actor said, “Of course, I had to give 30-40 takes, focussing on every single line. It was hard work, but we finally got it right.” Ayushmann reveals that when he was 15 he used to call at his girlfriend’s residence, and if her parents picked up the call, he used to pretend to be a female friend. “I think I’d been preparing for this film for years,” the actor added.

The actor also revealed that the inspiration behind this character was Aamir Khan (Baazi) and Kamal Haasan (Chachi 420). He said, “They both inspired me but Dream Girl revolves around the boy who works in a call centre, so I had to wear a saree or a lehenga in only around five scenes.”

Directed by Raaj Shaandilyaa, Dream Girl also stars Nushrat Bharucha in the lead role.

OnlyFans made £513m in dividends for its owner before he died, here's the full picture

  • OnlyFans owner Leonid Radvinsky received dividends worth more than £513m (over $700m) before his death in March at the age of 43.
  • The company made $714m in profit before tax last year, a rise of 5 per cent from 2024, despite employing only 47 people.
  • OnlyFans has paid over $30 billion to creators since launch, according to chief executive Keily Blair.

The man behind OnlyFans was paid an extraordinary sum in dividends in the months leading up to his death from cancer earlier this year, newly published company accounts show. Fenix International Ltd, the British company that owns the streaming platform, paid its late owner Leonid Radvinsky more than £513m (around $700m) before he died in March.

According to Fenix International's annual report, the company made $714m in profit before tax last year, up 5 per cent from 2024. What makes the figure especially striking is the size of the company behind it. OnlyFans employs just 47 people, a staggeringly small workforce for a business generating that kind of profit. For comparison, Marks and Spencer, which employs more than 65,000 people, made £671m in profit last year, roughly in the same ballpark as OnlyFans despite a workforce thousands of times larger.
