While Ayushmann Khurrana plays the character of a cross functional athlete, Vaani Kapoor portrays the role of a transgender in the film. Talking about the film, Abhishek Kapoor earlier said in a statement, "Ayushmann and I are both known for a certain kind of cinema and this film is definitely a special one for both of us." On the other hand, Ayushmann also praised Abhishek Kapoor's vision and said, "Abhishek has a very distinct voice in cinema today." Speaking confidently about the film, Ayushmann added, "It is a total family entertainer. It is a beautiful, progressive love story that will also touch your hearts." Talking about his film choices, the actor recently said, “I have never chosen a film basis its budget, scale or mounting. For me, these aren't the only important factors for a film to be perceived as a big film. I have only chosen films basis the bigness and uniqueness of its content. For me, a big film should trigger conversations on a national level and pull people into discussing issues that concern them.” Also Read - Anek: Article 15's hit combo, Ayushmann Khurrana and Anubhav Sinha's next, goes on floors — view pics
