We hit it off right from day one. We understood our styles of working together.

Working with Abbas Tyrewala?

Abbas is a very cool director. He does not dominate. We have been through so much together that we share a very close relationship. We're like brothers.

Abbas said you were just like Jai Rathore, your character on screen. The only difference is that you're shy. Is that true?

I am not shy. But there is a certain amount of flamboyance in Jai's character that is not there in me. I am fairly reserved and it was difficult to be flamboyant on screen. After a few days of shooting, Abbas told me to play Jai as though I was one drink down.

You wore a sari in the film. Were you comfortable?

I thought it was ridiculous! I thought Abbas lost his mind. I told him I am the hero of the film, how can you make me wear a sari? But he convinced me.
