Down To Earth
Though John Abraham is the Bollywood actor whom the director met in person, he shared that the actor is so down to earth.
“After watching the movie, John was crying like a baby. He shared that I was blessed since I have a special connection with the pet dog and that I could communicate with the animal so well which resulted in the making of 777 Charlie which moved many animal lovers. What more can a filmmaker ever ask for than such appreciation? They are more than any Awards,” he concludes.
