Sanya Malhotra Requests Netizens To Congratulate Ayushmann Khurrana. Here's Why

Actress Sanya Malhotra, who rose to fame with her role in the 2016 film 'Dangal' as wrestler Babita Phogat will next be seen in Vishal Bharadwaj's 'Pataakha', in which she plays a village girl. The film is slated to release on September 28.

On Friday, September 7, Sanya Malhotra took to Twitter and requested everyone to wish actor Ayushmann Khurrana 'Badhaai Ho' (Congratulations) and requested to ask him about the good news. She tweeted, "Hey guys! Wish @ayushmannk #BadhaaiHo aur poocho, khush khabri kya hai? He has something to share with us."  

Khurrana's wife Tahira Kashyap was however confused and said that she herself was not aware of the reason. She tweeted, "Mujhe bhi batado koi! Aisi kaunsi khush khabri hai.... khush Hun ke tension lun !! #BadhaaiHo"

Following Malhotra's request, several celebrities joined the bandwagon to wish Ayushmann Khurrana and expressed their curiosity over the matter.

Later on, Ayushmann Khurrana tweeted saying that he is clueless as to why Sanya Malhotra did this. He has asked people to stop sending him #BadhaaiHo. 

For the uninitiated, Ayushmann Khurrana and Sanya Malhotra will be seen together in the Dusshera release, 'Badhaai Ho'. This may be a marketing strategy the makers are planning ahead of the release of the trailer of the film.
