Ayushmann Khurrana’s ‘Article 15’ was released today two years ago. The actor was widely appreciated for his portrayal of ASP Ayan Ranjan.
As the film timed two years today, Ayushmann opened up about working on the project.
Article 15 has completed two years of its release today. The film closely shows the prevalent discrimination based on caste in society. Ayushmann Khurrana essayed the role of a police officer.
Actor Ayushmann Khurana, who is known for portraying diverse roles with perfection, said, “Article 15 is a special film in my filmography and I can’t thank Anubhav Sinha sir for giving me one of the most cherished films of my career. It was an eye-opening film for me and helped me see things from a different lens.”
He said, “We will need films like Article 15, with its superlative content, to pull people back to theatres.”
Actor Ayushmaan said, “We will need to be disruptive and present fresh content for people to enjoy, engage and discuss. I’m a firm believer that the pandemic and lockdowns have made us more opinionated than before and people would only want to invest time and energy in things that are unique and different. They would want to have worthwhile community experiences.”
He said, “Cinema will provide them with that option but we will have to produce the best content that we have ever produced. People will want to be entertained with films that celebrate new ideas. The scale of the film will be immaterial because the content will take precedence in a whole new world.”
