Ayushmann Khurrana pens heartwarming note on Kishore Kumar's birth anniversary; 'Forever grateful to the legend'

As a passionate admirer of both Kishore Kumar and Ayushmann Khurrana, I must say that their shared love for music is truly heartwarming. Ayushmann’s tribute to Kishore Da, guessing his iconic songs just from the music, speaks volumes about his deep respect for the legend. It’s not every day you see a modern artist paying homage in such an engaging and creative way.


Across the globe, people are expressing their admiration and writing touching tributes as August 4, 2024, signifies the 95th birth anniversary of the late, esteemed singer Kishore Kumar. Many celebrities have penned heartfelt messages, with Ayushmann Khurrana being one of them. This versatile actor and singer also offered his affection to the legendary musician on this special day.

Recently, Ayushmann Khurrana posted a video on his old social media platform (previously Twitter). In this video, he’s seen attempting to identify famous songs of Kishore Kumar based solely on the tunes.

Posting the video, he commented, “Growing up listening to Kishore Da’s music nurtured and fueled my passion for singing heartfelt melodies. His tunes have been a constant source of solace, happiness, and motivation in my life. Eternally thankful to this legendary artist. Wishing him a Happy Birthday (heart emoji)!”

Alternatively, just like Javed Akhtar, the renowned lyricist, expressed his feelings on this day marking Kishore Kumar’s birthday. He posted a heartfelt message on his Twitter account saying, “Isn’t it amazing that in the world of entertainment, even after so many years, there may not be another performer as deeply missed as Kishoreda was and still is.” Earlier, he had tweeted the same sentiments about Kishore Kumar, adding, “Millions and millions of people miss you almost every day, and I am one of them.”

In terms of his career, Ayushmann Khurrana was last seen alongside Ananya Pandya in Dream Girl 2. However, a news piece in Mid-Day indicates that he’s been having trouble scheduling for Meghna Gulzar’s upcoming film, tentatively titled Daayra, because of a congested schedule towards the end of 2024. The movie, scheduled to start production by the year’s end, conflicts with Ayushmann’s planned US music tour. Additionally, he has at least two more cinematic projects in store apart from Border 2.

According to the previously stated portal, negotiations for all projects’ dates are ongoing, but Gulzar’s film with Meghna is not included in his schedule at this time. The production team has been made aware, and it is being reported that Gulzar is searching for a suitable replacement.

Previously, TopMob unveiled that Meghna’s movie was inspired by real-life events. A source shared, “This film carries a powerful message and demands actors of Ayushmann Khurrana and Kareena Kapoor Khan’s caliber. They have gone through the script, and it’s left them astonished by the case details. Similar to Talvar, this movie could provoke the nation with its portrayal of the case and encourage discussions about it.”

Additionally, we shared with our audience that Ayushmann Khurrana will collaborate with Rashmika Mandanna in a horror-comedy film. Entitled “Vampires of Vijay Nagar,” the movie is set to be helmed by director Aditya Sarpotdar, known for his work under the moniker “Munjya.”
