In his upcoming political action thriller, Anek, Ayushmann Khurrana will take on the role of an undercover cop. With films like Vicky Donor (2011), Badhaai Ho (2018), Article 15 (2019), and Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan (2020), the actor is recognized for breaking social stigmas and smashing preconceptions. He will now be seen in an undercover cop role for the first time.
Ayushmann Khurrana remarked this about his role in the upcoming film Anek. He said, “This is the first time the audience will see me in this avatar. I have played a cop before but this is the first time they will see me going undercover. Joshua in Anek is street smart and intelligent. He knows his way around people and can fight bad guys not only in a physical capacity but also with his great intellect. I was very pumped to try my hands at portraying Joshua as it gave me an opportunity to explore something I hadn’t done before. I owe it to my audience to offer them new experiences with each film.”
Talking about the film, filmmaker Anubhav Sinha said, "I am excited about Anek's release as it has a lot in store for the audience. Ayushmann has put everything into portraying Joshua, there is no one else who could have done it better than him. Not only is he a great actor but he was pretty dauntless when it came to performing action as an undercover cop in the film."
Anek is co-produced by Bhushan Kumar's T-Series and Anubhav Sinha's Benaras Mediaworks.
