Ayushmann and wife Tahira to make ‘Toffee’

Actor-singer Ayushmann Khurrana is turning producer with wife Tahira Kashyap directorial debut, a short film titled Toffee. Ayushmann will be coproducing the film with casting director Mukesh Chhabra.

Co produced with casting director Mukesh Chhabra, Toffee, as this short film is titled, has an engaging idea at its core. Set in the Nineties, the film is about two pre teen girls, aged around 11. Their insights into the world as it is, and conspiracy theories that prevailed then make for an interesting inverted lens to narrate this story. JAR Productions, headed by Ajay Rai, is the executive producer of this short. And Vivek shah is the Dop.

Elaborating on his move to turn producer, Ayushmann said, “Tahira has been an author. And now she has also written a really good script, one that deserved to be seen by people. She’s written scripts for our theatre group and has directed plays as well. With Mukesh chhabra as a co-producer who’s a credible name in the industry with his spot on sensibilities, Toffee has the look and feel of a feature film and the advantage of telling a story within a short duration.”
