Ayushmann Khurrana has now become a leading name in Bollywood due to his amazing selection of films. The actor impressed everyone last year with two massive hits i.e Andhadhun and Badhaai Ho.
While there are many upcoming films of the actor, fans are looking forward to and yet again Ayushmann has bagged another interesting project. Seeing Ayushmann’s talent, celebrated director Shoojit Sircar has brought the Badhaai Ho actor together with Amitabh Bachchan for the first time.

Although Big B has worked with the director in movies like Piku, Ayushmann will collaborate with Shoojit Sircar for the first time. The film titled Gulabo Sitabo will be set in Lucknow and is being helmed by Ronnie Lahiri and Sheel Kumar.
Talking about the upcoming film, Sircar told the Mumbai Mirror, “Juhi and I have been working on this script for a while now. We all know whenever she comes up with a story, it has her trademark quirk. As soon as I read it, I shared it with Mr Bachchan and Ayushmann at the same time. I thought it would take some time to develop and take it forward, but everyone was so enthusiastic to work on this script, they figured out their dates and here we are, planning to release the film this year itself.”

Traditionally, Gulabo and Sitabo are glove puppet characters made of papier-mache and who are dressed in colourful clothes and trinkets, hailed from North Indian state. The story of the film that borrows the title from their names, Sitabo is the worn-out, overworked wife of a man, while Gulabo is his enticing mistress. It is peppered with local humour and songs that depict the nuances of daily life, the report stated.
Meanwhile, Ayushamnn's next to release will be Article 15 and the actor has many more interesting projects on his work front.
