In an exclusive conversation with OTT Play, the amazingly talented actor, Ayushmann Khurrana spoke about how the humor in Dream Girl 2 is inclusive and doesn’t cross any line or won’t hurt anybody’s sentiments. Khurrana said, “Of course, there’s a certain social responsibility as an artist towards the public. I have always been a part of progressive cinema for the last 10 years to make sure that we don’t cross that line. But having said that, it’s a commercial and massy film. We are not saying anything; there’s no message per se. It’s a laugh riot.”
