Brothers Ayushmann Khurrana and Aparshakti Khurana have been carving their own way, at their own pace in the film industry. Aparshakti, who made his Bollywood debut with Aamir Khan starrer Dangal in 2016, says that he feels that he is yet to reach a point that will make him feel he's accomplished something in his career.
Speaking to Hindustan Times, Aparshakti said, "I don’t think there’s a point where I felt like 'Ab kar liya kuch'. I'd rather want to say this that thankfully there’s not been just that one moment. Today, I’m not that Dangal actor, I've done films such as Luka Chuppi (2019) too after it. I am happy that people don’t say I am that Dangal guy. If that was the case, it would have been problematic."
Not many people know that Khurana was a radio jockey before getting into acting. His brother, Ayushmann, too was a video jockey before his acting stint.
Speaking about the same, he said, "I wouldn’t say I didn’t know anyone, I did radio for six years. I would keep meeting musicians, actors, filmmakers, I sued to interview them. I was in touch with them professionally. Though I did have a connect with them, it didn’t mean they will give me an opportunity to act. It was always through auditions, you had to crack them."
Adding to it, Aparshakti also questioned as to how he can be an "outsider" in his own country.
"Wherever I go, city, state, I will still be a person who belongs here. Also, somebody who is an outsider today, members of his family will be insiders tomorrow. For example, if me and Ayushmann are outsiders today, though I hate the term, our kids will be insiders after a few years," he said.
