Bollywood actor Ayushmann Khurrana has made his fans and the Hindi film fraternity proud again with his latest achievement. He has been named among the 100 most influential people of 2020 in the world by the Times Magazine. The actor took to Instagram to share how “honoured” he was to be a part of the group. He shares the honour with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who, too, has been named in the list. He wrote on Instagram, “TIME’s list of the 100 Most Influential People in the world is out, I’m honored to be a part of this group: time.com/time100 @TIME #TIME100.” The post was showered with thousands of ‘likes’ within a few minutes and congratulations began pouring in for the Article 15 actor.
While Sargun Mehta took to her Instagram stories to appreciate Ayushmann and sing praises for him, Badshah, Sonam Bajwa, Shilpa Shetty, Angad Bedi poured their love through comments on Ayushmann’s post.

Deepika Padukone also appreciated the actor’s film choices in the magazine, “I remember Ayushmann Khurrana vividly from his debut film, Vicky Donor. He had, of course, been a part of the entertainment industry in various other ways for several years before that, but the reason you and I talk about him today is because of the impact he has been able to create through memorable films and iconic characters. Where male protagonist roles often fall into the trap of stereotypical masculinity, Ayushmann has successfully and convincingly transformed into characters who challenge those very stereotypes.”
On the work front, the actor is currently preparing to star in Abhishek Kapoor’s next.
