Adding that a lot of planning was involved to make it all happen, the 73-year-old actor shared: “There has been some wonderful planning for the shoots that surreptitiously happen on the streets with actors and actresses... but when it is accomplished say to yourself, then it was wonderful that it was done.”
 
He was specifically all praise for the people of Kolkata.
 
“The people of Kolkata, these well educated and aware people of Kolkata, have great manners and awareness of anything that is everything... such a delight to be in their midst.”
