As Indians celebrated Friendship Day on August 2, the first Sunday of August, actor Ayushmann Khurrana shared a throwback picture from his college days, wishing his friends on the occasion.

The actor took to his Instagram handle to share the picture and revealed that he remains in touch with 40 of his batchmates from college.

Sharing an image, Ayushmann wrote, “I am blessed to have great friends! My friends have been my pillars of strength. This picture was taken when we were getting ready for a college play. We had started this group called Aaghaaz, the play was called Kumaraswami and I played the lead character. We were a total of 10 boys in the play and all of us went bald during the peak winters in Chandigarh! Rochak and I have always shared a special bond. We were both inclined towards the creative arts. I have known him since the 8th grade. We went to the same school since the late 90’s – St. John’s High School, Chandigarh. We became friends in school when we discovered that both of us are crazily passionate about music. I’m lucky that we clicked and since then we have stayed tight through thick and thin.”

“During a pandemic like this, you realise how important human connections are. Along with Rochak, I am in touch with nearly 40 of my batchmates and I truly consider this as a blessing Here’s wishing each and everyone of you a very Happy Friendship Day! @rochakkohli (Kumar Saurav, Jaiveer Singh and Mayank Choudhary also in the picture),” he added.

On the professional front, Ayushmann was last seen in Shoojit Sircar’s Gulabo Sitabo alongside Amitabh Bachchan which was among the first of many Bollywood films released on OTT. Next, he is prepping up for a Raaj Shandilya film and also has an Anubhav Sinha film in his kitty.
