Times are indeed changing. Filmmakers and actors are no longer playing it safe these days. Take Ayushmann Khurrana for example. The actor has played a sperm donor, someone who is suffering from erectile dysfunction, a bald man on the screen so far. Many other mainstream actors wouldn't even consider playing such characters. In his upcoming film, Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan, Ayushmann takes up another gutsy role as he plays an openly gay man, who fights with his lover's (played by Jitendra Kumar) parents for acceptance of their relationship. The trailer dropped a few weeks back, and needless to say, a huge set of people are looking forward to watching the film.
While we all are waiting for Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan to release, the makers are making sure that the buzz is strong. Just a few days back, the first song titled Gabru was released. Now, we have the second track from the movie. Titled Mere Liye Tum Kaafi Ho, this number is sung by Ayushmann himself. With this song, Ayushmann has once again shown us that he is not only a gifted actor, but also a good singer. From the looks of it, Mere Liye Tum Kaafi Ho seems like a promotional song. It's more like a music video where we see Ayushmann crooning the song in front of a mic, as some sequences, especially the romantic scenes between Ayushmann and Jitendra pop on the screen in between. The song is mellow and with Valentine's Day coming up, we can easily see it becoming an instant hit.
