He seems to have done it again. Two days since it dropped online, the trailer of Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan has taken social media by storm. At the centre of the film is the topic of homosexuality — something that a section of India's population is happy to turn a blind eye to. But leave it in the trusted hands of Ayushmann Khurrana, and he will find a way to bring the dialogue into the audience's living rooms.

In what is probably the biggest validation for the actor, he says that his parents, father P Khurrana and mother Poonam, loved the trailer of the same-sex love story. "They saw it on loop and laughed all the way through. They loved it. I was thrilled with their reaction because I realised immediately that the subject and my character have struck a chord with them," smiles Khurrana.
