The actor who was recently voted by TIME magazine as one of the most influential people in the world has arrived in Chandigarh all set to shoot for his upcoming flick, Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui. The city is the actor’s hometown, but he still chose to stay in a hotel and not with his family. Khurana chose to do this due to the risk of his family’s safety being altered, with COVID threats around the country.

Ayushmann said, “I have been extremely cautious through the pandemic and taken every possible step to not catch the virus and protect my family. My wife and my two young kids can never come in harm’s way because of me. With me starting to work, our parents in Chandigarh too should be safe at all times. Though I want to contribute to restarting the industry, I also want to safeguard my family from the virus.”

He further added, “Following this, I have checked into a hotel along with the entire production team. We are all staying there till the end of the shoot. Whenever I go to meet my family now, we are maintaining social distance and also wearing our masks. It feels odd but it is an important security step.”
