This time it was a chance encounter with the makers of the film that fetched him the role.u00a0The star happened to be on the same flight with the film’s producer Rahul Mittra. They got chatting and by the time the flight had landed, Babbar was in the film!
Explains Mittra, “I met Rajji on a flight from New Delhi to Mumbai. I was meeting him after years and we got talking. Before the flight had landed in Mumbai, I knew I had found Bunny, the character of Soha’s father in the film.”
