He started his post by saying: "Can you narrate your script/story to us?' Simple request right ? Sounds simple. But for me - and am sure for other passionate artists- my script lies in what I call the 'Zone'."

He added in his post, "So when Shabana Azmi asked me to at least tell the story of 'Masoom, the next Generation' I balked. I hesitated .. I was in London and she on the other end of the phone in Mumbai."
