"It was really amazing. We had planned on working together twice before but it didn't work out. I was very excited and nervous about working with him. Amit ji is a very warm and generous person. He makes you comfortable and is very easy to work with. He is so well behaved that you don't feel intimidated. However, he has got a very dry sense of humour. You don't know whether he is joking or not. It takes time to understand that."
