Now, as the nation is coming back to normal, the actor is every needy's knight in shining armour. As a way to honour his philanthropic activities, the residents of Dubba Tanda village in Andhra Pradesh's Siddipet district came together to construct a temple which is dedicated to Sonu.

Ayushmann Khurrana gears up to celebrate New Year with family in Chandigarh

Ayushmann Khurrana is currently shooting for his upcoming film titled Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui. The actor, despite shooting in his hometown, is staying in a hotel to protect his family amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, for New Year, Ayushmann is planning to wrap up the film's shoot and spend quality time at home. He will be getting himself tested before celebrating Christmas and New Year with them!

Ayushmann revealed, “It’s been a decade since I last spent New Year with family in Chandigarh. I will be fortunate to spend Christmas and New Year with them this year and I know it will be priceless.”

Talking about spending time with his family and friends after the lockdown was lifted, Ayushmann said, “Since the lockdown lifted, we have been in Chandigarh and we have made amazing memories with each other. I have been able to catch up with my full family, my friends from school and college as well as some of my teachers, so I’m going to deeply cherish the time I have spent in my hometown.”

Ayushmann said he is happy that his kids Virajveer and Varushka have managed to spend enough time in Chandigarh and feel closer to their roots. “I’m really happy that my kids got to spend time and live in Chandigarh because that’s where our roots are and I think they have had a blast. With the attention that they have got from our families and our friends, in the past few months, I think they are going to miss them dearly,” he added.

Ayushmann revealed that Christmas and New Year is going to be a super intimate affair for the Khurranas. He said, “We are going to do a simple get-together during New Year’s eve. I will be wrapping my shoot soon and I will have enough time to do my covid tests, get the reports and go home. I will be able to finally spend time with my family & hug them. I haven’t been able to do this because of my shoot. So, I think New Year will be a very intimate affair at the Khurrana’s and I’m looking forward to bringing in the new year with them. 2020 has taught us to concentrate on our priorities, on the things that bring us joy and I’m fortunate that I will have all the important pieces of my life under the same roof to celebrate New Year with.”\
