Raising the guffaws! Ayushmann Khurrana pokes fun at himself

Ayushmann Khurrana

Ayushmann Khurrana poked fun at himself on social media for his soaring list of brand endorsements. The actor posted, "These days my Instagram page looks like a catalogue for advertisements." Khurrana has been on an endorsement overdrive with seven brands in his kitty in the past few months. He's laughing all the way to the bank too.

On the work front, Ayushmann Khurrana is undergoing a drastic physical transformation for his upcoming romantic drama co-starring Vaani Kapoor and directed by Abhishek Kapoor. The actor, last week, posted an Instagram picture, where he is seen lifting weights. His face remains concealed in the snapshot. "It's going to be a different me in this different film. Movie prep going strong @gattukapoor," Ayushmann wrote.

The actor will be seen playing an athlete in the upcoming film, which is pitched as a progressive love story. The yet-untitled film is set in north India and shooting begins in October. It is slated to release worldwide in theatres next year.

Ayushmann has been listed in the Artists category, which also includes Oscar-winning Korean filmmaker Bong Joon-ho, "Fleabag" creator and star Phoebe Waller-Bridge, and Hollywood star Michael B. Jordan, besides pop music superstars Selena Gomez, J. Balvin and Jennifer Hudson.

Great going, Ayushmann!
