While interacting with the media there, he was asked about his most memorable blockbuster hit ‘Munna Bhai’ series and he said, “I pray to God it happens soon but this should be asked from Mr. Raju Hirani (Raj Kumar Hirani) director of ‘Munna Bhai…’ series.

I learnt a lot in that process because I worked with some of the great actors from the industry.”
