Ayushmann Khurrana talks about the importance and awareness of LGBTQ in the society

After playing the bald guy in his recent film Bala and a guy who arouses men in a female voice in his film, Dream Girl, Ayushmann Khurrana is set to come back to the big screen in the role of a gay from a small-town in Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan. Ayushmann Khurrana feels he had to do this film to do his bit for the cause of LGBTQ community in India. In a recent interview, Ayushmann revealed about why chose to do a film like this. He said that he was born and brought up in a small city and while growing up he did not have the adequate knowledge to understand the situation. He also said that he has seen his perspective about the LGBTQ community evolve and he has slowly recognised the societal stigma and stereotypes associated with the community at large and it changed him.
