Tahira Kashyap Khurrana's Hustle For Sharmajee Ki Beti; Reveals Making A Film With Ayushmann
The film has a particular moment, wherein Sakshi’s character who plays a teacher in the film, tells her husband, played by Sharib Hashmi, to do some household chores that she couldn’t complete as she was running late for work.
Now, in an exclusive interview with ETimes,
Tahira
opens up if that moment is inspired from her life with husband
Ayushmann Khurrana
and she said, "( laughs) For that he needs to be at home also, honestly main bhi na gas on kar pate hain, so usko kya hi bolu. (even I can't switch on the gas, what do I say). But I think whatever roles we have taken up, there is a mutual understanding, like if we are traveling, and I am doing research on the place, then he has to figure out the logistics. So it's basically an unsaid-said way we have found for dealing with life and with kids.”
Tahira also shared the reactions of her two kids after watching the film on the big screen, she said, "They came for the screening and were my biggest cheerleaders. They were shouting from behind, and I was like guys, stop it, they were very happy. I think they have seen their mother struggle for the last 7 years, and they have seen how passionate I have been, and how I have been hustling, so they know the BTS behind all of this, so they really loved the film.”
