World Theatre Day 2018: Spot Ayushmann Khurrana In This Old Street Play Pic

New Delhi: On World Theatre Day 2018, actor Ayushmann Khurrana shared a picture from his performance in Mumbai 16 years ago. Ayushmann and his group performed a street play called Mann Ki Bhadaas at IIT Powai (Mumbai) in 2002. He also revealed that they had won the first prize. "We performed a street play called Mann Ki Bhadaas - a musical at IIT Powai in 2002. Our theatre group Aaghaaz from DAV College, Chandigarh got the first prize that year. That was the first time a college from a non-metro city participated in Mood Indigo and got the first prize. Can't forget that day," Ayushmann, 33, captioned his post.

See the photo here. Can you spot him? "I'm sure it will be difficult for you guys to recognise me in this," said Ayushmann.
