Ayushmann Khurrana teams up with filmmaker Abhishek Kapoor for a love story

Ayushmann Khurrana was last seen in Gulabo Sitabo which got a direct-to-digital release on Amazon Prime Video. And now, the actor has teamed up with filmmaker Abhishek Kapoor for a love story. The untitled movie is set in North India and will start rolling in October this year.

Talking about the movie, Abhishek said, “Ayushmann and I are both known for a certain kind of cinema and this film is definitely a special one for both of us. We want audiences to come back to the theatres and watch movies as a community and for that, we will spare no effort. We strive to bring our best game for this one.”


Ayushmann will be seen playing the role of a Cross-Functional Athlete in the movie and will be going through a physical transformation. Kapoor said, “Ayushmann plays a Cross-Functional Athlete in the film and he will have to go through a physical transformation that he hasn’t done before. It’s quite a challenge and he’s very committed to it.

Ayushmann, who is known for starring in content-driven films, said, “Abhishek has a very distinct voice in cinema today and I am glad that we finally got the opportunity to collaborate on a project that’s exceedingly close to my heart. This film has all the trappings to take audiences through a ride of emotions and it is a total family entertainer. It is a beautiful, progressive love story that will also touch your hearts.”

“I’m supremely excited about the physical transformation that I will have to undergo. It will present me in an all-new avatar. I have never looked like this on-screen and I’m looking forward to seeing the reaction of audiences. The process is going to be intense and excruciating for me but I feel all the pain will be worth it," the actor added.

Well, it’s a love story so of course, the female lead will also have a meaty role in it. Let’s see which actress will be roped in to star opposite Ayushmann in the movie. The untitled film will hit the screens next year.

Suchitra Krishnamoorthi apologises after calling Ahmedabad plane crash survivor a ‘liar’

Actor and singer Suchitra Krishnamoorthi has issued a public apology after facing strong criticism on social media for questioning the survival story of Vishwas Kumar Ramesh, the sole survivor of the recent Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad.

Deleted post sparks backlash

The controversy began when Krishnamoorthi, known for her role in Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa, shared a now-deleted post on X (formerly Twitter) alleging that Vishwas Kumar Ramesh had fabricated his account of surviving the 12 June crash. In her post, she wrote:
“So this #vishwaskumarramesh lied about being a passenger on the plane & the only survivor? This is seriously weird. Didn't his family in the UK corroborate his story? What about his brother's funeral that he was seen giving kandha to? Deserve not only some serious punishment but some mental asylum time if this is true uff.”

Regulator warns Air India over delayed emergency equipment checks: Report

INDIA’s aviation regulator has warned Air India for violating safety rules after three of its Airbus aircraft operated flights without undergoing mandatory checks on emergency escape slides, according to official documents reviewed by Reuters.

The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) issued warning notices and a detailed investigation report highlighting the breach. These documents were sent days before the recent crash of an Air India Boeing 787-8, in which all but one of the 242 people onboard were killed. The Airbus incidents are unrelated to that crash.
