I definitely needed a lot of workshops with Sabbir sir, to cater to this character. I watched a lot of commercial cinema, I really enjoyed re-watching a lot of Govinda sir’s films. He’s supremely talented and I enjoyed my afternoons, re-watching his films.”
Driven by Abhimanyu Dassani’s character Adi, the film reveals the story of a young, jobless, carefree boy who transforms into the responsible and reliable person when it comes to his family.
