Ayushmann Khurrana is arguably the most unique actor of Bollywood. Despite being an A list star, he doesn't shy away from roles which don't fit into the brackets of a typical Bollywood hero. Between his first film 'Vicky Donor' and latest one 'Doctor G', he has worked in several off beat dramas and in a recent interview, he talked about the same.

He told ETimes, "I have always believed in cinema for change and it is something that I started with my first film, Vicky Donor, and since then, I have been tirelessly treading on that path. I think a film is more palatable to people when it is shown in a way that it has something to say. And yes, you are right that life has come a full circle. It was beautiful that I got a chance to play a doctor in this film, and this is the kind of content that attracts me."

Sharing why he gravitates towards unconventional movies, Ayushmann stated, "I always thought I was an unconventional actor, and I would have to make unconventional choices. I probably saw the industry closely when I was an anchor, journalist and radio presenter. I learnt a lot by watching them and the choices they made closely. I remember when I was a VJ, I had turned down six films."

The actor concluded by saying, "I believed that if I made the wrong choice, then being an outsider, I wouldn’t get a second chance. So, I thought that my first film had to be special and clutter-breaking. And I am glad that I got a movie like Vicky Donor because it couldn’t have been better. Coming from a small city and trying to make it on my own — I didn’t know how else I could have been different. It had to be with choices and films that were different from what was conventional."
