He has made beautiful and small-town films like Tanu Weds Manu. He shared the script of Jabariya Jodi. Our energies just matched.” “After a couple of months, I called up Ekta (Kapoor) and said, ‘I’ve got this great script and I believe Balaji Productions would be the right producer for it’. And here we are in Lucknow making this film,” he concluded.
