Minting about Rs 10 crores on its first day itself, the movie has been hailed as Ayushmann Khurrana¡¯s best performance by some of the fans. After all, Bald is beautiful.

As per film critic Taran Adarsh, Bala is Ayushmann's biggest opening film with screen count of 3550 all over the world. Considering it is the solo release this week, Bala is expected to do well at the box office.
Also starring Bhumi Pednekar, Yami Gautam, Javed Jaffrey and Saurabh Shukla in pivotal roles, Bala is directed by Amar Kaushik and produced by Dinesh Vijan.
The film has already fallen prey to piracy.

Infamous piracy website Tamilrockers has leaked the complete movie online. Well, this isn¡¯t the first time, Tamilrockers have been leaking almost all movies soon after their release. Hrithik Roshan-Tiger Shroff's War and Akshay Kumar's Housefull 4 were also leaked online.
Meanwhile, Ayushmann Khurrana has expressed his dream to direct and produce some day. ¡°I want to write a book of poetry, want to write a script, want to direct and produce someday,¡± he was quoted as saying by IANS.
Talking about his career, he said, ¡°I have built my entire career on lack or attack of vanity. But realism really attracts me. We have seen manicured perfect heroes over the years, it's quite an aspiration for the common man. But the common man cannot become like them, so to give them the confidence they need, someone has to glorify their imperfections. And I think my films would lead them to that mind space.¡±

Today, Ayushmann Khurrana is happy where he is. He says he is living his dream. ¡°I always wanted to be an actor, a singer. God has really been kind and I am really fortunate to be at the right place at the right time".
Did you know Ayushmann Khurrana had once died while skiing! No, that¡¯s just a silly rumour and he thinks it is the weirdest. "The weirdest rumour that I heard about myself is that I died skiing in Switzerland," he was quoted as saying.
