Actor/Singer
Ayushmann
Khurrana
is
mighty
impressed
with
his
Meri
Pyaari
Bindu
co-star
Parineeti
Chopra's
singing
skills
and
wants
her
to
pursue
it
as
a
full-fledged
career.
Ayushmann,
who
himself
is
a
successful
playback
singer
besides
a
music
band
of
his
own,
said
he
had
no
clue
Parineeti
was
such
a
good
singer
until
he
met
her
on
the
set
of
Meri
Pyaari
Bindu.
"Parineet
is
fabulous.
She
has
got
a
great
voice
and
she
is
classically-trained.
She
should
really
take
her
singing
seriously
because
she
is
brilliant," the
31-year-old
actor
told
PTI.
Ayushmann
says
he
hit
it
off
with
Parineeti,
who
plays
an
aspiring
singer
in
the
movie,
instantly
due
to
their
love
for
music.
"We
bonded
over
music.
There's
not
a
single
moment
on
the
set
when
we
are
not
jamming.
It's
so
much
fun
jamming
with
her.
We
want
to
sing
a
duet.
Parineeti
and
I
also
connected
because
we
are
not
filmy
people,
we
are
real
and
very
simple."
The
film,
which
marks
the
directorial
debut
of
Akshay
Roy,
will
see
Ayushmann
playing
a
Bengali.
The
"Dum
Laga
Ke
Haisha" star
says
the
character
has
helped
him
know
Bengali
culture
like
never
before.
"Apart
from
learning
Bengali
language,
the
film
has
actually
brought
me
closer
to
the
culture,
to
Bengali
people.
I
now
understand
them
better
and
I
am
loving
my
time
here
in
Kolkata," said
Ayushmann.
