Sometime back, Ayushmann Khurrana had expressed interest to assist his Vicky Donor director Shoojit Sircar in his upcoming next. And the director only seemed too happy to yield.

So after “Madras Cafe” went on floors, Shoojit invited Ayushmann to assist him in shooting the political thriller. The actor, however, couldn't comply owing to prior professional commitments and blocked calendar.

Nevertheless, the actor took a 10 days break from work and flew all the way to Cochi to assist Shoojit in canning a crucial scene between John Abraham and Siddharth Basu.

Says Ayushmann Khurana, “I wish I could be there for all 40 days of the Madras Cafe shoot. Shoojit has a fabulous set up .It was fascinating to see actors from a different point of view. I hope this experience results in making me a better actor.”
