Ayushmann won’t assist Sircar in ‘Jaffna’

by Aug 19, 2012

Mumbai, Aug 19 (IANS) Ayushmann Khurrana says he will not assist director Shoojit Sircar in “Jaffna” anymore due to paucity of time.

“After ‘Vicky Donor’, there was nothing, so I decided to assist him, but later I got Ramesh Sippy’s next film, so I will not have the time to assist him,” Ayushmann told IANS.

Talking about how he started assisting Sircar in the first place, the actor said: “Actually it started when one day I was late for ‘Vicky Donor’, so Shoojit made me the fourth assistant director who has to clap every time the shoot starts. I told him that I was enjoying it and he told me to start assisting him.”

After the stupendous success of Sircar-directed “Vicky Donor”, VJ-turned-actor Ayushmann became a star.

When asked about his future projects, he said: “After this (Sippy’s film), I will start ‘Humara Bajaj’. I am reading a few scripts right now and I will sign one of them soon.”
