Ayushmann Khurrana is all set for his next big release, the comedy-entertainer Pati Patni Aur Woh Do where he shares screen with Wamiqa Gabbi, Sara Ali Khan, and Rakul Preet Singh. The film is directed by Mudassar Aziz. The actor recently about how his upcoming film is a throwback to older comedies, and more. 

Speaking about the film’s comic roots, Ayushmann said, “Pati Patni Aur Woh Do is a situational comedy in its purest, most classic form. The idea traces its roots back to the legacy of Sanjeev Kumar- I have been a big fan of his work. Humour from films of that era emerged from misunderstandings, timing, and character dynamics.” Also expressing an admiration for classic comedies like Padosan, Chupke Chupke, Angoor and Gol Maal, Ayushmann added, “They are a laugh riot and I’m hoping Pati Patni Aur Woh Do will also be the same for people.” 

The Andhadhun actor also praised director Mudassar Aziz for his scriptwriting, adding, “Mudassar has crafted something that carries forward that spirit of clever writing in cinema that beautifully celebrates comedy of errors. This is an out and out family entertainer meant to be enjoyed together, and a throwback to a time when storytelling was simple, clean, and genuinely funny. I’m a big fan of such cinema and it was truly refreshing to see someone wanting to make that kind of film and celebrate the simplicity of emotions”. 

The official trailer of Pati Patni Aur Woh Do was released a few days ago in Mumbai. The comedy-entertainer is set for theatrical release on May 15.

Ayushmann was last seen in Thamma, which released in October last year. Meanwhile, Wamiqa recently had a release with Bhooth Bangla that has performed well at the box office.
