meeting

when
I
was
doing
Om
Shanti
Om.
They
(Shahrukh

introduced
me
to
him
and
I
remember
how
warm
he
was
towards
me,
the
kind
of
encouragement
he
gave
me
when
I
was
in
the
industry...I
think
it
is
because
of
people
like
him,

I

planning
about
it
for
a
long
time,
who

He
is
someone

I
think
it

the
