Speaking to Film Companion, R Balki revealed, “Once, Amit ji was on set, and he was screaming… He never screams, he’s the calmest guy. Suddenly, he starts screaming. And everybody was stunned. We’d never seen him scream. I said, ‘One second, there’s something wrong out here’, so I went up to his van. I asked, ‘Everything okay? Food okay? Why are you screaming?’ He looked at me, didn’t reply, went back to his poker face.”
