Ayushmann Khurrana has been on top of his game with seven back-to-back super hits. Now, at an awards ceremony in Guwahati, Assam, the versatile star put on his dancing shoes and paid tribute to the legendary actors. He set the set on fire by dancing on the immortal songs of Indian cinema’s greatest superstars Dev Anand, Rajesh Khanna, Raj Kapoor, Amitabh Bachchan, to name a few. His blistering performance wowed audience as Ayushmann gave the perfect salute to these icons.

In a medley that mesmerised Guwahati, Ayushmann performed on 'Jeena Yahan Marna Yahan' from Mera Naam Joker, a Raj Kapoor classic; 'Yeh Dil Naa Hota Bechara' featuring the late Dev Anand; 'Mere Sapno Ki Rani' featuring Rajesh Khanna and 'Mere Angane Mein' featuring mega star Amitabh Bachchan and the catchy 'Yaar Bina Chain Kaha Re' from Saaheb with Anil Kapoor and Amrita Singh.
