Aayushman Khuran's special target audience for his movie

MUMBAI: Ayushmann Khurrana and Jitendra Kumar have been promoting their film Shubh Mangal Zyaada Saavdhan for a while now.

The film is about two gay men falling in love and also deals with the problem of homophobia that is so rampant in today’s world but in a humorous manner.

As per a source, Ayushmann had earlier stated the film deals with homosexuality but is not in-depth, and now, in yet another media interaction, he stated that the film actually targets people who are homophobic.

While some have been giving a bit of a tongue-in-cheek reaction to the trailer, it has also been appreciated by many. The songs are also being received well by many. But the real test of the film will surely be on the release day!

According to a media report, Ayushmann said he has been getting a positive response from his gay friends.

The actor has been quoted as saying, 'They are all positive reactions. They are really proud of this step and this film. Especially the last song that came out, Mere Liye Tum Kaafi Ho. It’s really warm and it shows the beautiful chemistry between the two boys. The target audience of this film is those people who are homophobic, not those who already are with the LGBTQ community.'

Speaking about the reactions, Jitendra Kumar, who plays the gay love interest of Ayushmann in the film has been quoted as saying, :The reactions are very positive. Generally, when a film on homosexuality comes out, there is a bit awkwardness between the friends. This time the warmth is quite different and one of the biggest reasons is Ayushmann. He has built acceptability for himself among the audience because of the kind of films he is doing.'
