From Andhadhun to Badhaai Ho, Ayushmann Khurrana is known for embracing a gamut of on-screen characters. The versatile actor will be seen playing the role of a police officer in Anubhav Sinha’s upcoming venture titled, Article 15. The first look of the film has Ayushmann sporting a cop’s uniform. Standing next to a police jeep, sporting a moustache and his grim expression adds a new dimension to his persona.
The team has begun shooting in Lucknow. “It is an investigative drama where the audience too is an accused party. A very challenging film that needs an extraordinary actor like Ayushmann. Delighted to have him on board with an explosive bundle of such talented and acclaimed actors,” said Anubhav Sinha.
Ayushmann Khurrana, in a statement, said,
“I’m always intrigued by the socio-political situation of our country. We hardly see films which present the situation in an unbiased way. Anubhav Sinha is one such director who understands the complexities of our country. I loved Mulk. It is the most balanced film based on communalism and extremism. And it will be an absolute pleasure to work with him on Article 15”.
