Mumbai: Director Rohan Sippy has revealed that his upcoming comedy film 'Nautanki Saala' would salute the three reigning Khans of Bollywood - Shah Rukh, Salman and Aamir - by depicting some of their distinct styles.
'Nautanki Saala' stars Ayushmann Khurrana and Kunaal Roy Kapur of 'Delhi Belly' fame in the lead.
As the title suggests, the film is a comedy of errors between two theatre actors - Ayushmann and Kunaal.
Launching the trailer of the film, Ayushmann revealed that he has imitated Shah Rukh in the film, mouthing dialogues with the name of his films like 'Darr' and 'Devdas' in SRK's style.
"To imitate a person means he is successful so people are imitating him. I think it's the best compliment," Ayushmann said.
Revealing further details, Rohan said, "In the film, you will get to see certain styles of Shah Rukh, Salman and Aamir. We respect them. It is our way of saluting our favourite actors."
Actor Ayushmann Khurrana has also sung two songs in the film.
"It is a fun film with no hidden meanings. It has drama and is about theatre actors," the actor said.
"In theatre, acting needs to be larger than life, while in films it is subtle. Since I come from theatre background I had to unlearn lot of things," he further added.
From being a contestant on a reality show to being a VJ and host, Ayushmann entered Bollywood with 'Vicky Donor', which garnered good response at the box office.
Talking about his journey in films, the actor said, “Everyone struggles while doing theatre. I feel if you enjoy the journey then the struggle is not longer.”
"I think the pressure is less as I am doing my second film with Ramesh Sippy. So I am not facing any pressure as he made this huge superhit film 'Sholay'. There was pressure as to what I would sign next after 'Vicky Donor',” said Ayushmann.
The film will also see actor Abhishek Bachchan doing a cameo in the film for his friend, director Rohan Sippy.
It is expected to hit theatres on April 12.
