And there's nothing villainous about it. And obviously I had emotional reasons, first of all, to do it because my son is the producer and also the story writer of Heer Express, and Umesh Shukla, a dear friend and a director whose work I admire. So it was a good challenge for me. It was an interesting opportunity for me to play this. I'm very happy and delighted. The whole experience was wonderful.”
