So when I requested him to make an appearance in Dil Bechara, he was ready in no time. Also on sets, he made me feel so comfortable by giving me the liberty to make him do whatever I wanted him to. I think his experience has polished his craft that his work is so smooth. And what an amazing person he is.”
Further when a fan asked him if he met Taimur and does he plan to cast him some day, Mukesh answered, “Yes, I met him many times when we were shooting abroad. He was there. First time all I did was keep looking at him for 10-15 minutes, he is that cute and adorable. Casting him or not, I don’t know. When the time is right let’s see, there’s a lot of time for that, let me first do what is in my plate already.”
