Ayushmann Khurrana and Tahira Kashyap celebrate 16 years of love with ‘cringe’ throwbacks
Ayushmann Khurrana and Tahira Kashyap mark 16 years of marriage with a humorous throwback to their "cringe-worthy" wedding photos.
Actor Ayushmann Khurrana says art and cinema can do a lot to change mindsets. He opened up on the subject in the context of his last-released film, Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan.
“This movie is very close to my heart. It has been a while since same-sex love was decriminalised. However, I believe we have a long way to go before society accepts it,” Ayushmann said.
“Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan is a lighter take on the reality of homophobia that exists in India and also an attempt to bring such unconventional stories to the fore. Art and cinema, in my opinion, can do a lot to change mindsets. With Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan that was our intent – to bring the conversation on same-sex love to all of India,” he added.
