Ayushmann who has for the first time collaborated with Amitabh Bachchan on Shoojit Sircar's Gulabo Sitabo has expressed his joy of getting a chance to work with the megastar. Sharing his fan moment and thanking Shoojit Sircar for this wonderful experience and giving him a chance to work with Big B, the Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan actor wrote in Hindi, "Whenever a young man in our country wants to step in the field of acting, then his goal is Amitabh Bachchan. There was a dialogue in my last film that Bachchan is not made, Bachchan is just there. When I saw "Hum" in Chandigarh's Neelam Cinema and saw Bachchan on screen, there was such energy in my body that forced me to become an actor. My first TV shoot was done in Mukesh mills and this was the place where Jumma Chumma De De song was shoot. On that day I had a feeling that I have arrived. If this was the situation at that time then you might be able to think what feeling I would be going through today. The celebrity was standing in front of me in the Gulabo Sitabo and the tendency of the characters was that we had to tolerate each other. In reality, you think I will be able to say something in front of him."

जब भी हमारे देश में कोई नौजवान अभिनय के क्षेत्र में कदम रखना चाहता है तो उसका ध्येय होता है अमिताभ बच्चन। मेरी आख़िरी फ़िल्म में एक dialogue था कि बच्चन बनते नहीं है, बच्चन तो बस होते हैं। जब मैंने बचपन में चंडीगढ़ के नीलम सिनमा में “हम” देखी थी और बढ़े से बच्चन को बढ़े से पर्दे पर देखा था तो शरीर में ऐसी ऊर्जा उत्पन्न हुई जिसने मुझे अभिनेता बनने पर मजबूर कर दिया। मेरा पहला tv शूट मुकेश मिल्ज़ में हुआ था और यही वो जगह थी जहां जुम्मा चुम्मा दे दे शूट हुआ था। उस दिन मुझे I have arrived वाली feeling आ गयी थी। अगर तब यह हाल था तो आज आप सोच सकते होंगे मैं किस अनुभूति से गुज़र रहा होऊँगा। गुलाबो सिताबो में मेरे सामने बतौर ‘सह’ कलाकार यह हस्ती खड़ी थी और किरदारों की प्रवृति ऐसी थी की हमें एक दूसरे को बहुत ‘सहना’ पड़ा। वैसे असल में मेरी क्या मजाल की मैं उनके सामने कुछ बोल पाऊँ। इस विसमयकारी अनुभव के लिए मैं शूजित दा का धन्यवाद करना चाहूँगा की उन्होंने मुझे अमिताभ बच्चन जैसे महानायक के साथ एक फ़्रेम में दिखाया है। दादा आप मेरे गुरू हैं, आपका हाथ थाम कर यहाँ तक पहुँचा हूँ। “सौ जन्म क़ुर्बान यह जन्म पाने के लिए, ज़िंदगी ने दिए मौक़े हज़ार हुनर दिखाने के लिए।” -आयुष्मान Catch #GiboSiboOnPrime today!
