Ayushmann Khurrana-starrer An Action Hero released earlier this month and it couldn’t get going at the box office. This became the fourth unsuccessful film for the actor ever since the theatres re-opened after the COVID-19 pandemic after Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui, Anek and Doctor G.
An Action Hero is the directorial debut for Anirudh Iyer. The filmmaker is confused about film’s result at the ticket window. In an chat with Indian Express, he said, “It is very special, overwhelming. I didn’t expect so much but on the other side, I didn’t expect such bad box office numbers also. It is a bit difficult to process this. I don’t know what to take from it. You have an experience, you make a film, then people point out to you certain things which didn’t work, and you see why that happened. You learn from that and go to the next one, that these are the things that I will or won’t do.”
Elaborating on his dual state of mind, Iyer added, “Here, my problem is that I am not able to find a closure. Everyone who has spoken to me have told me the film is perfect, that there is nothing that they would change in it. The numbers that the film has done, I am not able to understand, find that closure. That’s one mixed feeling I am in right now. How do I make myself better? What do I do to? I don’t know what went wrong, but the reviews have been so wonderful. I am in a limbo; I am too happy but also upset.”
Produced by Aanand L Rai and also starring Jaideep Ahlawat in a pivotal role, An Action Hero is about a Bollywood superstar, played by Ayushmann, who, for a shoot, visits a village in Haryana where he unintentionally kills a guy who happens to be the younger brother of the dangerous municipal councillor (Ahlawat). How he runs away to London and what happens there forms the rest of the story.
