Ayushmann Khurrana co-stars with Bhumi Pednekar and Yami Gautam in Bala but as per Mr Adarsh, the primary reason why Bala continues to attract theatre goers is because "Strong word of mouth plus brand Ayushmann are key contributors."
Bala is Ayushmann Khurrana's sixth consecutive hit movie after Shubh Mangal Saavdhan, AndhaDhun, Badhaai Ho, Article 15 and Dream Girl's great box office runs, of which AndhaDhun, Badhaai Ho and Dream Girl scored above Rs 100 crore at the box office.
Directed by Amar Kaushik, Bala also fetched critical acclaim for Ayushmann Khurrana. In his review for NDTV, film critic Saibal Chatterjee wrote: "Bala is undoubtedly Ayushmann Khurrana's film. But Bhumi Pednekar and Yami Gautam play second fiddle with such aplomb that they are never put in the shade."
