The actor recalled that the filmmaker said, “Tum koi aur kaam mat karna.. Tumko mai launch karunga… to maine kaha thik hai ghar kaise chalega.. To unhone pucha kitna kharcha hota hai ghar ka. ("You don’t do any other work… I will launch you. So I said, okay, but how will the household run? Then he asked, how much does it cost to run your household?)”
