It is a story of a small time struggling actor called Sanjay Bajaj and that is why the title 'Hamara Bajaj'. It is a drama about a small town guy, who wants to be an actor and eventually becomes a star. But there are challenges," Ayushmann said.u00a0

The shooting for 'Hamara Bajaj' would begin in December 2012. "But this ('Hamara Bajaj') will practically be my third film because I have ten months in between so I may do another movie. I am reading scripts and taking time. I took four years before doing my debut film, so I am in no hurry," he added.u00a0

"I wrote this song with a friend of mine. We were looking for the perfect launch pad. I used to take classical training as a kid, the inclination towards music is from family as they love music. If I do more films, I will sing for myself, I write (lyrics) also. I write poems in Hindi," Ayushmann said.u00a0
