It was across the time after we obtained to see Breaking Bad and House of Cards in India, early a part of the final decade.

Writing the dialogues of Udaan in simply 4 nights whereas he was getting ready for his personal movie Gulaal in Jaipur. That was loopy. He would prep within the day, write dialogues at evening – by hand – and I’d then kind it within the subsequent day. If there have been any corrections, we might sit once more the following evening. I’ve by no means carried out that once more, I don’t suppose I ever will.
