‘Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan’: TVF fame Jitendra Kumar to play Ayushmann Khurrana’s lover?

Ayushmann Khurrana is pushing the envelope with each of his films. After playing a sperm donor, a guy suffering from erectile dysfunction, a blind pianist and other such riveting characters, Ayushmann is all set to play a homosexual character in Aanand L Rai’s upcoming production ‘Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan’.

The film, which is a sequel of ‘Shubh Mangal Saavdhan’, will portray a gay love story. Now ever since the film was announced, we all have been eager to know about who will be starring opposite Ayushmann in this 100 per cent “natural love story”. Looks like the cat is finally out of the bag. Yes, as per a report in Bollywoodlife, Jitendra Kumar (popularly known for the comedy sketches of The Viral Fever(TVF)) will be playing Ayushmann’s love interest in ‘Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan’.

Revealing about Khurrana’s love interest, a source close to the development informed the portal, “The character is of a small town boy and the makers wanted to take an actor who can pull off the character with ease. The makers wanted a relatively fresh face and after doing the rounds of auditions, Jitendra fitted all the bills. Although he has not signed on the dotted line yet, he is the one.”

This is a very exciting news for all those who have seen Jeetendra’s work. He is indeed a terrific actor. However, with no official announcement made about him being a part of this Ayushmann starrer, all we can do is wait and watch.

For the uninitiated, Jitendra (who is popularly known as Jeetu Bhaiya in the web world) has already made his silver screen debut with Shweta Tripathi starrer ‘Gone Kesh’.

Directed by Hitesh Kewalya, ‘Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan’ will hit the silver screens in 2020.
