During college days, Ayushman used to earn money by singing a song in trains with his friends, so that he could fund his trips. During the promotion of his film ‘Meri Pyari Bindu’ in 2017, Ayushmann shared this story. He said, ‘I tell how we used to perform in trains. During college days, in the ‘West Express’ train going from Delhi to Mumbai, my friends and my friends used to sing and perform in every coach. Passengers used to give us money, which we used to collect. Used to get so much money that we used to sponsor our Goa Trip! Yes, you can say that I am a train singer.

Another challenge in Ayushman’s life was his father’s strictness. In the ‘Anestally Sehing’ podcast, he revealed that his father was a ‘dictator’ and was beaten with slippers, belts as a child. Ayushmann had said, ‘My father was a dictator. It was common to be beaten with slippers, belts and was definitely a childhood trauma. One day I returned from the party, the smell of cigarette was coming from my shirt. I had never touched cigarettes due to fear of my father, but still I was beaten. His father P Khurana died in May 2023. Photo courtesy-@ayushmannk/instagram
When Ayushman was 16 years old, he fell in love. In Kapil Sharma’s show, he revealed his lovestory with Tahira Kashyap. The actor had told that he met him during the board exam on 12th and fell in love. He had told, but as soon as he won Roadies and started getting stardom, he broke up with Tahira. But soon I understood that he could not live without them and then returned and in 2008, both of them got married. Photo courtesy-@ayushmannk/instagram
On ‘Koffee with Karan’ in 2018, Ayushman had told that he tried to meet Karan Johar in the initial days. Karan gave him a landline number.
