And Jitesh Pillai had asked me don't you think you're being too pompous.""Tonight at this moment I stand corrected and validated. Thanks for your unconditional love Jitesh," he further wrote.The 'Andhadhun' actor was also very vocal about his admiration for director Sinha, for giving such an incredible role for him in the flick.The film's title derives from Article 15 of the Indian Constitution which prohibits discrimination on grounds of religion, race, caste, sex, and place of birth.( With inputs from ANI )
