The discipline. The love for music, poetry, films and art. He studied law but was always intrigued by astrology. He’s the reason behind the double Ns and double Rs in my name. At the same time he also taught us that we have the ability to carve out our own destiny and our good karma can supersede any soothsayer. My friend, philosopher and guide. My father,” the Doctor G actor wrote.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Ayushmann Khurrana was recently seen in Anubhuti Kashyap’s Doctor G alongside Rakul Preet Singh in the lead. It was released theatrically on 14 October 2022 and received mixed responses from all. Next, the actor will soon be seen in the much-awaited Dream Girl 2.
