Dream Girl 2: Ayushmann Khurrana Reveals How He Prepped For Getting Into The Skin Of His Character; Sheds Light On Enacting A CROSS- GENDER Role And Getting Feminine Grace! (Details Inside)
Ayushmann Khurrana went to great lengths to play 'Pooja' in the upcoming movie 'Dream Girl 2'. He tried out-of-the-box things like wearing women's perfumes, playing a song for his entrance, and shaving every four hours to get into character. In the first 'Dream Girl,' Ayushmann's character used a woman's voice to talk about sadness and being alone.

At the launch of the song 'Dil Ka Telephone 2.0' from the movie in the country's capital, Ayushmann wore a yellow and black abstract print shirt with black trousers and round brown-tinted sunglasses. Ayushmann Khurrana said that makeup, outfits, and VFX were important parts of getting ready for the movie.
He said, "You need to get in touch with your feminine side. I wore perfumes made for women while making this movie. I also used to play a song for my opening, which would bring out the feminine energy and help me show it on the big screen. It's not easy, but it's an interesting job."
The 38-year-old actress had to work in the scorching heat of Mathura, wear makeup and hair, and deal with the challenges of playing two different characters. He said, "My beard used to grow every four hours, so I had to shave a lot. It wasn't simple."
Ayushmann got ideas for the part from Govinda, Kamal Haasan, and even 'Mrs. Doubtfire'. He said that he wanted to win the 'Best Actress' award and that Ananya Panday was one of his competitors in the movie. "She did a great job in the movie, and I'm the second heroine," Ayushmann said. I am the lead in parallel. I play Pooja for about 60% of the movie, which is twice as much fun."
'Dream Girl 2,' which will come out on August 25, is directed by Raaj Shaandilya and produced by Ektaa R Kapoor and Shobha Kapoor. It stars Abhishek Banerjee, Paresh Rawal, Vijay Raaz, Manjot Singh, and others.
