Reacting to this outstanding feat of the self-made actor who has etched his name in the history of Indian cinema with his progressive, social entertainers, senior Khurrana said, "Right from when he received the Filmfare award for 'Vicky Donor' to him being featured on TIME’s 100 most influential list, every time Ayushmann won, I have had tears of happiness in my eyes. I have seen him struggle to fulfill his passion for acting."

Acharya further added, "Ayushmann was inclined towards acting since childhood. When he was 5 years old, he was part of a Shakespearean play and since then he has been passionate about acting. While he was studying in college, he also formed an acting group. He also used to do street plays in Sector 17 with his friends and even though they were street plays they had a standard. Ayushmann also participated in college festivals and won awards."
