So I was waiting for the script. He gave me the synopsis initially but I needed to look at the detailed script. I wanted to know what I was doing in the film. Somewhere I was answerable to my audience too, especially a film of this magnitude -- as to why I chose to do it.

I have to have something as an actor to do as well. In February (2003), Ketan came to see me again with a script, where the character was really not strong enough from the perspective of me doing it. So I asked Ketan: 'Why me?'
