In an exclusive chat with News18, Ayushmann addressed the unpredictable nature of the box office in the post-pandemic world and said, “You can only choose content that touches your core. I’ve been choosing content which is different, be it Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui, Doctor G or An Action Hero and the critics loved these films. There were certain conspiracy theories that only spectacle films, family entertainers and sequels would work because people want to go for safer choices. But I’m glad that curve has taken a turn.”

It is the second installment of the comedy-drama from 2019 which had Nushrratt Bharuccha as the female lead.
