And apparently Naseeruddin Shah complimented him on his performance in the film, which is based on a play. He says, “Naseer bhai liked the play and wanted to part of the film. But when he shot for the film, I could not meet him, as I had no scene with him. However, he came for a special screening and also complimented me for my work.”
The actor adds, “I don’t want to do run-of-the-mill roles. I was supposed to work with Shivaji Chandrabhushan but the project was shelved. He promised to work with me and now he has kept his word by offering me this Indo-French film.” The film is about a French girl who comes to Rajasthan to trace her roots. During her journey, she meets a guy (Anjum) who narrates some untold stories of the land to her.u00a0
