Whatever I'm today, I owe to theatre: Ayushmann

Darpan News Desk IANS, 13 Nov, 2015 08:49 PM
    Actor Ayushmann Khurrana, who has carved a niche in the Indian entertainment industry with films like “Vicky Donor” and “Dum Laga Ke Haisha”, credits his success to his experience in theatre.
     
    Ayushmann will be seen on family game show “Deal or No Deal”, where he will come to support theatre group Thespo, which has been organising workshops and theatre fests across India.
     
    The “Hawaizaada” actor played the game to donate all the money to the group to support theatre since that’s where he started his career from. 
     
    “I’m really glad I could come to support Thespo and theatre in India because whatever I am today I owe it to theatre... That’s where I started my career and have gained all the acting skills," Ayushmann said in a statement.
     
    “Deal or No Deal”, which is aired on &TV, is hosted by actor Ronit Roy.
