‘It’s good to be a young parent’

Actor Ayushmann Khurrana says it is good to have children at a young age.

The actor opened up about his equation with his children when he shot for the chat show Famously Filmfare Season 2.

Asked how it is to be a hands-on parent, Ayushmann said: “Today, I had to wear glasses because I got up early in the morning for a shoot. It was also her sports day and I was all ready and geared up to win that 100 meter race with fellow parents as I was one of the youngest out there. I was really excited, but sadly that didn't happen. Even though I've under-slept today, it is alright. It is good to be a young father, a young parent.”

‘I hate being stereotyped’

Filmmaker James Wan has been fighting against labels for long and is not afraid to challenge himself to defy perceptions. The filmmaker says he hates being stereotyped, and doesn't need any label to define his craft.

“I hate being labelled. I hate being stereotyped into whatever pigeonhole people like to put me into,” Wan said.

“So every time people start to (do that), I start moving on. When they labelled me with too much of this work, I went to something else. I keep doing it because, at the end of the day, I just see myself as a filmmaker. I don't think there needs to be another label in front of the 'filmmaker' label,” added Wan while promoting his latest film Aquaman.
