Mumbai: Actor Ayushmann Khurrana said that he is happy that his younger brother Aparshakti will share screen space with superstar Aamir Khan in upcoming film Dangal.

The biopic on Haryanvi wrestler Mahavir Phogat is directed by Nitesh Tiwari and produced by Disney Studio India.

When asked if Ayushmann gave any tips to Aparshakti, the Vicky Donor star told PTI, "I am happy. It is an amazing opportunity to work with Aamir. I did not give him any tips. He is a very good actor himself. We had similar influences, but we are different at the same time." (Also Read: Sangram Singh Explains Why He Rejected Aamir Khan's Dangal)

In Dangal, Aamir plays the role of Mahavir Singh Phogat, who taught wrestling to his daughters Babita Kumari and Geeta Phogat.

Ayushmann said that his brother, who is a known radio jockey and theatre actor, will play a Haryanvi character in the film.

"He is playing a Haryanvi guy in the film. He was the captain of Haryana's cricket team, so it comes naturally to him. He is a linguist himself. I am looking forward to the film."

Dangal is scheduled to release on December 23, 2016.
