There are lots of youngsters who are struggling for their dreams. Every youngster has their own dreams and they try hard to fulfill their dreams. Nowadays, people are so impassioned that they want everything quickly in their hand and they want in as in their time. So, Ayushmann Khurranna's biography "Cracking the Code" is an inspiration book to those youngsters who have a dream and what should be done to fulfill their own dreams. 

The book is the journey of Ayushmann Khuranna: how he became RJ, then VJ and actor. The young guy who came from Chandigarh participated in the reality TV show "Popstar" and the guy who won "MTV Roadies Season 2", the guy who became popular RJ and finally became the actor from "Vicky Donor".

He was so passionate about acting that he wanted to do any kind of films at the beginning. He did anchoring of reality shows so that he can get movies or get opportunity to be an actor. He did serials too. Honestly, he was enjoying every work he was doing and was grabbing every opportunity he seeks. He grabbed those opportunity so that one day he could get movie offer.

When he did anchoring of "Just Dance", he was the highest paid non-celebrity and he was happy to do "Just Dance" because in this show, he was doing solo and can do according to his own basis. He didn’t need of teleprompter. He was offered to do anchoring in "India's Got Talent" again for the second time but he liked to do Just Dance. Although, he was interested to "India's Got Talent," he chose "Just Dance" over it to do new show.

After the show of "Just Dance," he got an opportunity in the movie named "Vicky Donor." He explains the journey of his movie: how was the experience in working the movie. Not only this, the good thing is that the code used in this book can be easily applied to other professions too, thus benefiting the reader in general.

The book is thin of page 136. The language of the book is simple and inspiration to the young ones. But what I didn't like about the book is that he could have written the book after some years later so that we can learn more about him. Furthermore, he could have explained more about the struggle during the movies. He could more explain why he did those movies and what his plans are, what he learned from those movies, he could have written. This could have been done.
