As Andhadhun clocked 1 year today, Ayushmann shared how the movie impacted him as an actor. “As an artist, I am a constant learner of the craft of acting. I am always looking out for films that make me better, that challenge my thinking, my beliefs and opens me up to absorb new things. Andhadhun has truly been one such film that has shaped me as an actor today,” said the actor.
He went on to add, “It taught me to challenge my inhibitions and showcase a completely different side to my craft that surprised me and also pleasantly surprised the audiences. I am thankful to my director Sriram Raghavan for trusting me with his vision and thankful to the universe for giving me projects like this which I can be so proud of.”
