\"Ayushmann Ayushmann Khurrana<\/a> recently spoke candidly about love, fame and emotional maturity while promoting ‘Pati Patni Aur Woh Do’. During a light-hearted yet revealing conversation, the actor admitted that early success briefly changed his personality and even led him to break up with his longtime partner, Tahira Kashyap<\/a>, after winning MTV Roadies.While promotion his film with co-stars Wamiqa Gabbi<\/a>, Rakul Preet Singh and Sara Ali Khan, Ayushmann reflected on how sudden fame impacted him at the age of 20. Talking about that phase of his life, Ayushmann shared on Raunaq Rajani\u2019s YouTube channel, \u201cI have gone through a similar situation. I was 20 at that time. I said the same things to my girlfriend, who is now my wife. She started laughing and asked me, \u2018What has happened to you?\u2019 I had just won Roadies, but in my head, I was the most popular guy in Chandigarh.\u201dThe actor further admitted that he decided to step away from the relationship for a short period because he wanted to focus entirely on himself and his career ambitions. \u201cI broke up with her for a while to focus on myself. I was like, \u2018I don\u2019t have time for relationships. I have to invest time in myself,\u2019\u201d he recalled.Ayushmann also spoke humorously about how men emotionally mature over time. Looking back at his younger self, he joked, \u201cMen have this deep tendency of starting off as a huge red flag and then suddenly becoming a green flag by the time they are in their mid-30s. I think it\u2019s a journey we all take. I think I am a green flag now.\u201dThe separation, however, was temporary. Around six months later, Ayushmann realised his mistake and reconciled with Tahira. The couple eventually married when he was 24, and by the time he made his Bollywood debut with Vicky Donor, he had already become a father.During the same interaction, the actor also made a surprising confession linked to ‘Vicky Donor’, the film centred around sperm donation. Cracking a joke about his preparation for the role, Ayushmann said, \u201cEven before starting Vicky Donor, I was already a father. I took method acting a bit too seriously.\u201dHe then revealed that he had actually donated sperm during one of the tasks on Roadies. \u201cI have donated sperm for real. It was part of a Roadies task. They used to check our sperm count. I was just 20 then. Nothing was shown on screen; only the results were revealed. And I won the task,\u201d he shared.His revelation left his co-stars visibly stunned. Sara Ali Khan appeared shocked, while Rakul Preet Singh reacted by asking, \u201cYou donated sperm, and then you did Vicky Donor?\u201dOn the professional front, Ayushmann will next be seen in director Sooraj Barjatya\u2019s Yeh Prem Mol Liya opposite Sharvari. He is also set to star in Dharma Productions\u2019 upcoming project Udta Teer alongside Sara Ali Khan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ayushmann Khurrana recently spoke candidly about love, fame and emotional maturity while promoting ‘Pati Patni Aur Woh Do’.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":677529,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[64,63,123061,447,230098,134,326565,300255,29904,326566,177908,123062],"class_list":["post-677528","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-ayushmann-khurrana","tag-celebrities","tag-emotional-maturity","tag-entertainment","tag-love-and-fame","tag-pati-patni-aur-woh-do","tag-rakul-preet-singh","tag-tahira-kashyap","tag-vicky-donor","tag-wamiqa-gabbi"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/677528","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=677528"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/677528\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/677529"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=677528"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=677528"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=677528"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
