Last week, a huge debate ensued when reports of Sonakshi Sinha performing Canadian sensation Justin Bieber, during his tour in India, surfaced. Many singers like Kailash Kher, Amaal and Armaan Malik and Sona Mohapatra voiced in their concern, which initiated a sparking debated between Sonakshi and her brother Luv, and the singers. Recently, actor Ayushmann Khurrana, who is also a talented singer, spoke on the same.
The actor-singer, who is currently running busy with the promotions of his upcoming film ‘Meri Pyaari Bindu’ had given an interview to an agency where he was asked about his view on actors trying their hand at singing? And his answer was a sensible one. (Also Check: PICS: Ayushmann Khurrana and Parineeti Chopra’s singing magic steals hearts at concert)
It is a well-known fact that Ayushmann is a trained singer, and acting came to him post his stint as a singer. Therefore, it was not a surprise when he said something which balanced out both the views. The actor said, “I think it’s great. It’s lending your own voice to the characters on screen — like it happens in the west. Why not? But at the same time, I would love to reiterate that singers… Pure singers are here to stay and nobody can ever replace them.” [sic]
Well, though Ayushmann has not mentioned Sonakshi or her tussle anywhere, but he has clearly spoken his mind.
“If you are singing for yourself and for your character on screen… because most of the actors are not doing stage acting for any other actor… they are doing it for themselves, and that’s allowed,” added the ‘Vicky Donor’ actor. [sic]
Talking about films, the actor’s next release ‘Meri Pyaari Bindu’ will see him opposite actress Parineeti Chopra, who would be making her singing debut with this film. It is slated to release on May 12.
Quiet, resonant, and creative, he can be seen immersed in his own world, and puts in his heart and soul into the one passion that he has, Bollywood. His line for survival? Feel happy to be a part of it.
