He said, “Ji haan mere paas sattar filme thi (yes, I had 70 films).” The 59-year-old actor added, “70 films thi beechme, iske baad kuch 8-10 apne aap close ho gayi, 5-6 pictures jo thi…uske baad 4-5 pictures jo hai mujhe chhodni padi dates ki vajah se.” He even stated that there were days when he had to shoot for 2-5 films on the same day.
