Last there was news about more than 700 pigeons being released in Awarapan to signify the Islamic tenet of freedom propounded by Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Now we are informed that 100 Buddhist monks were used in the film as well. Those who've seen the film's promos will observe the monks in the 'Tera Mera Rishta' track with actor Emraan Hashmi.

Confirming the news, director Mohit Suri says, "It was one of the most tedious days of shooting where we had 100 real monks for 'Tera Mera'. We shot this in Ancient City in Bangkok. They were all original monks and extremely sobre and calm individuals. They were arranged for by the local coordinators.
