'Ruslaan' actor Aayush Sharma reveals being a background dancer in Ranbir Kapoor’s Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani: 'I wanted to see...'

Aayush Sharma is now preparing for the premiere of Ruslaan, which will visit theaters this Friday, following the releases of Love Yatri and Antim. The actor revealed in an intriguing promotional interview that he was a background dancer for the Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani movie, starring Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor.

"I visited Mehboob Studios for the first time for Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani." "Why are you working as a background dancer?" someone asked me. I mentioned that I was curious to observe how filming takes place and what a set looks like. I had trouble finding work as an assistant director. I used to imagine that by becoming a casting director, I could gain access to the set. I recall that Mehboob Studios was the location of my YJHD photo shoot. I was one of the 300–400 background dancers, and it was a lovely occasion. 
Then I saw Manish Malhotra, Deepika Padukone, Kalki Koechlin and then I saw Ranbir Kapoor entering the set for the Dilliwali girlfriend song shoot," the actor recalled while talking to Bollywood Bubble.
