We knew it would be difficult but I think live locations just look better. In a blink of an eyelid there would be thousands crowding to see them. Live locations are anyway not easy and especially in the middle of Mumbai with all the traffic and population.

As a director, I don’t want to work in a vacuum. That is why I have chosen to work with the people I have because they bring something to the table.

So the minute he came on, that was like a green light. Like how we really weren’t able to cast it for two years because Aamir wasn't listening to scripts. He really was a driving force in the making of the film. Having said that, the working relationship was fantastic. Initially, everybody is in a little bit of awe of him. There’s huge expectation, considering he’s known to be the actor with the Midas touch.
