Role of Ayushmann in Bewakoofiyaan: A Real Life inspiration?

The upcoming movie of Ayushmann Khurana and Sonam Kapoor, ‘Bewakoofiyaan’

directed by Nupur Asthana has been in the news in the recent past for its modern appeal

and the hot bikini avatar of Sonam. However, the film has now made headlines after

rumours cropped up of it being inspired by real life incidents.

According to a news report in Mid-Day, ‘ Bewakoofiyaan’ could be based on the real

life incident of a Kingfisher Airlines employee who lost his job due to retrenchment and

eventually lost his wife as well.

While the film looks like a funny take on how a man has to deal with his girlfriend’s

father after he loses his job, the real life situation was more serious than that. The report

in Mid-Day suggests that Ayushmann’s character also works in an airline company and

then loses his job. Thus it looks like the film is inspired by the real-life incident.

The film under the Yash Raj Productions banner, ‘Bewakoofiyaan’ stars Rishi Kapoor

along with the lead pair of Ayushmann and Sonam. The film will hit cinema screens on

March 14, 2014.
