    Talking further about his character, Ayushmann said: "He is a fan of singer Kumar Sanu. The film's music is fantastic. It is a fun film."
     
    Directed by Sharat Katariya, "Dum Laga Ke Haisha" is set to hit theatres Feb 27. It stars debutante Bhumi Pednekar as a female lead.
     
    The film tells the story of Prem Prakash Tiwari, played by Ayushmann, who unwillingly marries a fat girl.
