He further added, “But, if you look at the lines and the way it’s written, it’s potentially a fascinating character. I never really allowed myself to think what would it be like playing that role but it’s a very naughty character also. I’ll imagine him (Hrithik Roshan) to be. I would have had, I don’t know slightly maybe a different take to where I would have you know be in this mind game playing.”
