He added, "Bear in mind that since Jaane Tu had not yet released, I was not considered to have any star value, so the producers were not very enthusiastic about casting me... I got the part thanks to dual support from the director, and writer Shibani Bathija, for which I am grateful to this day."

Imran further revealed, "Still, I was not important enough to be given a complete script; I was only allowed to read the scenes I was in, and was only given printouts of my scenes a day or two before they were scheduled to be shot. The Vikrant Raina storyline was a complete mystery to me until the release of the film! It was a very different working style than I had experienced, and I often felt intimidated by the scale of the production."

The actor concluded the note by saying, "It was 2007, and I was still using a Nokia, so I simply don't have a lot of pictures from the shoot (@minissha_lamba any chance you've still got that picture you took? Post it if you find it!)... but thankfully I found one with Minissha! She was lovely to work with; intelligent, articulate, and self-assured. Here's us in Mauritius, enjoying the Awesome Mausam!"

According to the buzz, Imran is gearing up to make a comeback after a long gap.
