AYUSHMANN KHURRANA’S EMOTIONAL POST FOR HIS FATHER
Ayushmann has always credited a major part of his success to his father. In a post that he shared a few years back, the actor talked about the influence that his father had on his life growing up. He said he is the reason behind adopting discipline in his life and his inclination toward the creative field.
Ayushmann once wrote, “We got it from him. The discipline. The love for music, poetry, films, and art. He studied law but was always intrigued by astrology. He’s the reason behind the double Ns and double Rs in my name. At the same time he also taught us that we have the ability to carve out our own destiny and our good karma can supersede any soothsayer. My friend, philosopher, and guide. My father (sic).”
