Tonight is your big night… when your family , friends and the fraternity will welcome you to the movies with their arms wide out ( your father made that a national gesture ) … you treaded a path that many never believed you would … the daunting task of being behind the camera… of being a story teller and the captain of its execution… have seen you work tirelessly and passionately for over 2 years and never once taking the opportunity given to you for granted….”

‘I was secretly dying for you to ask me [on the show]’

He continued, “You have an individual style of telling your story and I can’t wait for everyone to see and hear your voice in #badsofbollywood … I am so so proud of you and love you so much!!! (also thanks for giving me a part in the show, I was secretly dying for you to ask me) …. Series toh ban gayi beta…Picture abhi baaki hai (The series is done but the picture is yet to come)!!!!! (red heart emoticons).”
