During the conversation, Sunny revealed his reaction to his iconic dialogue being used in the film.
Sunny said, “I was a little bit not so happy about it, to be very definite, but then I understood why it is required and why the director has conceived that particular dialogue to be there in that scene. It comes across very well and now everybody is talking about it”.
Talking about his experience working in a Telugu film, Sunny shared, “The only difference basically is always the language, otherwise there was nothing because cinema is itself a language which we all understand and definitely the fun was that the subjects are so rooted to the nation. We hardly see Hindi cinema doing that off late for a long time and it was fun and one felt excited that one is going back to the roots again.”
