Actor Ayushmann Khurrana has started work on physically transforming himself for his role of a cross-functional athlete in an upcoming love story directed by Abhishek Kapoor.
Ayushmann posted a few pictures on Instagram Story of a virtual meeting with trainer Rakesh Udiyar. “Here we go!” he captioned the frames, along with a powerlifting emoji. Ayushmann tagged his director Abhishek Kapoor in the post.
“It is now certain that Ayushmann is hiding his look. He is purposely being elusive on social media because he doesn’t want anyone to get a glimpse of his transformation before he starts shooting. Since he plays a cross-functional athlete for the first time, Ayushmann will have to change his body type completely and that first look is definitely a big visual for everyone to catch hold of. He is definitely protecting his look, or else why would he not upload his images?” a source said.
Ayushmann is right now in Chandigarh, and the source added: “We think he intends to do just that till the first look is released by him,” adding: “Abhishek and Ayushmann have definitely planned a big surprise for the audience.” The yet untitled love story has Ayushmann pairing up with Vaani Kapoor for the time.
