Fresh from the success of two back-to-back hits last year (2018) – Badhaai Ho (comedy) and Andhadhun (thriller) – Ayushmann Khurrana is currently in Lucknow working on his next big screen outing. The actor is at present shooting for Anubhav Sinha’s Article 15 that sees him don the khakee for the first time. And we must say that like his previous roles, he looks rather convincing in the cop avatar too. The actor himself is thrilled to be playing a cop as well as working on a film that has a strong socio-political set-up. Ayushmann started shooting for the film from March 1 and he recently took to the social media to reveal how shooting for this film is seeing him and the team put in their sweat and blood, literally.

Yes that’s right! While we have heard of actors work rather hard for their roles, this one saw the cast of Article 15 even give their blood for the shooting. Ayushmann posted on his Instagram handle how while shooting they got into a swamp as part of a crucial scene, only to realise much later that the swamp was leech-infested. However, the cast completed the shoot before stepping out from the swamp with leeches on their bodies! All praise for his team members and calling the shoot a true test of his love for acting, he posted: “Today was a true test of my love for my craft. We are in the middle of shooting Article 15, being directed by the super talented Anubhav Sinha. Yesterday, we had a challenging day – a shot required us to enter into a swamp and do a gripping scene. We realised that the swamp was filled with leeches only when we were in the middle of the shot! I would like to salute my brave team of investigative officers (it’s an honour to act with these talented actors) for finishing the scene despite a vicious leech attack! @anubhavsinhaa hum aapke liye khoon bahane ko tayaar hain.” Clearly, the actors believe in giving their sweat and blood for their passion of acting.

Meanwhile, this Anubhav Sinha film is being talked about for its hard-hitting subject. As per the Indian Constitution, the Article 15 is about prohibition of discrimination. This discrimination is on grounds of religion, race, caste, sex or place of birth. Besides, Ayushmann, the film also stars Isha Talwar, Kumud Mishra, Manoj Pahwa, Sayani Gupta and Zeeshan Ayyub.
