Ayushmann Khurrana will be seen next in Hawaizaada, a film which is set in the late 1800. The actor has been doing a thorough research on the era and has been very intrigued with all that he has found.

Ayushmann Khurrana who will be seen playing the role of Shivkar Talpade feels that a lot of legends in that era (late 1800 and early1900) that are yet to be recognized for their contribution towards Indian revolution. He was very proud when recently Madan Mohan got a Bharat Ratan award for his contribution. Malaviya is most remembered as the founder of Banaras Hindu University and a president of Indian National Congress. The actor feels like Madan Mohan, Shivkar Talpade, there are a lot of people whose story needs to be shared.

Ayushman shares, "It is a proud moment for us to know that a person like Madan Mohan Malviya has been recognized for his contribution towards the Indian society. I hope going forward we would read more about these individuals of that time who have been part of Indian revolution."
