Imagine sharing the spotlight with your sibling on the big screen! That’s the dream that real-life brothers Ayushmann and Aparshakti Khurana have been toying with. Born and bred in Chandigarh, both actors have made a mark in the film industry, but there’s one small difference— the spelling of their surnames. While Ayushmann sports a double ‘R,’ Aparshakti sticks with a single one. Surprisingly, this variation wasn’t a career move but a decision made by their father’s astrologer guruji when they were born.
When asked about the spelling difference, Aparshakti chuckled, revealing that it was all part of their destiny. Their father’s guruji decided on the spelling, giving Ayushmann and their father the double ‘R,’ while Aparshakti and their mother were bestowed with the single ‘R.’ It’s a quirky family tale that has nothing to do with their Bollywood journeys.
In an industry where name changes are common after success, Aparshakti has stayed true to his roots. He joked about the trend, imagining if Ayushmann had added a triple ‘R’ after the success of “RRR”! But for him, maintaining authenticity is key.
Aparshakti Khurana’s Dream Collaboration
The idea of a joint project between the Khurana brothers isn’t far-fetched. Aparshakti shared that they’ve explored numerous script options over the past eight years. However, for them to unite on screen, the script must be truly exceptional. He envisions something akin to the iconic film “Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar”—a story with heart, perhaps involving music or sports. While he’s not suggesting a direct remake, he desires a project that’s pure and organic, resonating with audiences on a deep level.
As for their individual careers, Ayushmann Khurrana recently appeared in “Dream Girl 2” alongside Ananya Panday and is gearing up for “Border 2” with Sunny Deol. Meanwhile, Aparshakti Khurana eagerly awaits the release of “Stree 2,” featuring Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor.
The Khurana brothers’ journey in Bollywood is not just about individual success but also about the possibility of a joint venture that could set screens on fire. Their bond, both on and off-screen, adds an extra layer of intrigue to their already captivating stories. As fans eagerly await their next moves, one thing’s for sure—when the Khurana brothers unite, it’ll be a cinematic treat worth watching.
