Even though he is known to take risks with his big screen outings, Ayushmann Khurrana admits that the decisions don't come easy. The actor — one of the first in mainstream Hindi cinema to play a homosexual character in the upcoming release, Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan — reveals that many dissuaded him from taking up the Hitesh Kewalya-directed venture.

"Doing Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan was one of the most important decisions of my life. Many people from the industry asked me to rethink this because no leading hero has ever portrayed a gay man on screen. But I knew this stereotype needed to be shattered, and decided to take the plunge," shares the actor.
