Talking about this Dilip Kumar project further, Sangeeta also added, “it is so unfortunate that we lost Sahab although he was quite ailing. It would have been wonderful if he would have been there because it was his dream project. He did not do any other project after he started making Kalinga. He was so devoted and dedicated to the film. This was his dream. Let’s see if we could release this sometime soon.”
Talking about the execution process, the producer added, “We have to figure out how we can present it to some filmmakers because it is not just a film which has only commercial value. It’s much more than that. As the title suggests, it had a story connecting with all and needs to reach the right audience.”
