And I had the opportunity of working with that great filmmaker and I told him that that was my reaction when I saw the film.”
He jokingly also expressed his astonishment and said, “As a technician, I couldn’t sleep that night and that’s the kind of movies. Many such movies Amit ji has done, and to hear him say nice things about my films is something I had not imagine. When I was an assistant director and watching Sholay on the big screen. Thank you, Amit ji.” Their friendly banter was a refreshing moment. We can’t wait to see them together in Project K.
