Ayushmann Khurrana recently visited his school in Chandigarh as the guest of honor at their annual function. The talented actor was ecstatic and worked around his dates to ensure he can be part of the same.
Juggling between rehearsals, brand shoots, script reading sessions etc. the talented actor made time to take a day off and attend his school's annual day. Ayushmann thoroughly enjoyed himself at school and even met Mrs. Kavita Das who is the principal and also was the principal when Ayushmann was in school.
Talking about the same Ayushmann shares "I got a chance to meet my principal, Mrs. Kavita C. Das. She called three weeks back asking if I could be a part of the annual day as this would be her last year due to her retirement. I agreed immediately and worked around my schedule."
He further shares "I still remember how she managed the technical' s backstage for one of my plays in 1999. I essayed a key character so, back in the day we used to interact a lot. Infact, I have been in touch with her even after I graduated so I am really glad she invited me for this. I got a chance to meet some of my seniors, the current students and to top it all the annual day was taking place at the Tagore theatre where I performed my musical so it got me really nostalgic. The students had planned a few performances and I had a lovely evening sharing the stage with them."
