Ayushmann Khurrana to reteam with filmmaker Anubhav Sinha?

2019 has turned out to be an extremely fruitful year for actor Ayushmann Khurrana. On one hand, he received his first National Film Award for his outstanding performance in Shriram Raghavan’s 2018 thriller Andhadhun. On the other hand, he delivered three super successful films in a quick succession, namely Article 15, Dream Girl and Bala. All three movies were completely different from one another and Khurrana managed to do full justice to each and every character that he essayed.

Out of the three films, Article 15 was special as it started a conversation about cast discrimination that still exists in India. Directed by well-known filmmaker Anubhav Sinha, the film did not only strike the right chord with the audience, but emerged as one of the most commercially successful films of the year.

We hear that after the runway success of Article 15 earlier this year, Ayushmann Khurrana and Anubhav Sinha are set to collaborate with each another once again for another film. A popular entertainment magazine reports that Sinha had pitched a story of a spy thriller to the actor which the latter immediately agreed to be a part of it. Though nothing much is known about the untitled project at the moment, we hear that the makers are looking at taking it to the shooting floor sometime next year. An official announcement is highly awaited.

Meanwhile, Anubhav Sinha is awaiting the release of his next directorial offering Thappad. The movie reunites the filmmaker with actress Taapsee Pannu after Mulk (2017). Thappad is scheduled to release on 28th February, 2020.

Ayushmann Khurrana, on the other hand, will next be seen in Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan and Gulabo Sitabo. While Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan is set to enter theatres on 21st February, Gulabo Sitabo releases on 17th April, 2020.

Joaquin Pedro Valdes on finding his place in London and challenging stereotypes in British theatre

Highlights

  • Filipino actor Joaquin Pedro Valdes left a career in filmmaking and advertising to pursue musical theatre in the UK, following his first love for the stage.
  • Now playing Benny in RENT, he wants audiences to see the character as a complicated human being rather than simply the villain.
  • Valdes believes Asian representation in British theatre has improved, but says producers and creative teams still have a long way to go.

Filipino actor Joaquin Pedro Valdes spent nine years working in filmmaking, directing commercials and advertising before deciding to pursue the one passion he could never leave behind. Theatre had been part of his life since childhood, but turning it into a full-time career meant leaving Manila, moving to the UK and rebuilding his professional life in a new country.

Now performing as Benny in the West End production of RENT, Valdes is drawing on his own experiences of ambition, financial pressure and belonging to explore a character who is often dismissed as the musical's antagonist. For him, Benny's story is about more than money. It is about someone who once belonged to a community but chose a different path in the hope of building a better life.
