Ayushmann Khurrana is one of the most bankable actors despite being an outsider. The actor since his debut film Vicky Donor, has been breaking stereotypes with his acting, films and stories. Earlier during Hindustan Shikhar Samagam 2020, the actor revealed that he rejects half a dozen films before debut and said, "I knew that being an outsider, I wouldn't get a second chance."

At the event, Ayushmann also talked about nepotism in the film industry. He said star kids who are successful are because they have talent and added, "Star kids who are successful, are genuinely talented. They get their first break but then they have to live up to a benchmark. If I give my 50%, people say I have done it by myself. If star kids have a potential of 80% and even if they give their 100%, people aren't satisfied."
