Back then, I didn’t have any clue concerning the group. When I used to be chosen for it, I set to work with the group. That was my introduction to this world. I’ve come throughout some heart-wrenching tales since, and now, I perceive what they undergo. That movie by no means led me to a different film, however after so a few years, it helped me carry out this half.”
The brief movie additionally stars Tanuja and Ranveer Brar. Gandhi is delighted to share display area with the veteran. “She lights up the display. The type of efficiency has modified rather a lot [over the decades], however even now, she is easy.”
