"I was excited to work with Sunny Deol. He is a senior actor, and I respect him a lot. I was very reserved; we would sit in different corners. We would just ‘Hello’ and ‘Hi’ and that’s all. Even when I would talk to him, I would look down and look up and look down while speaking to him. But once we got comfortable with each other, then it was all good."
