He even more shared that it was his sibling that aided him get to the placement he remains in today. He described, “My sister worked with Vidhu Vinod Chopra. She approached his ex-wife, Renu Chopra, who forced him to take me on. Vinod Chopra, in his characteristic style, initially dismissed me. But then he accepted me, and I worked with him for 8 years.”
Sanjay Leela Bhansali included that collaborating with Vidhu Vinod Chopra prepared him for anything. “He made me iron and steel. After working with him for 8 years, you can face anything in the world. To this day, if Vinod Chopra calls, I stand up when I talk to him. That is the gratitude I feel towards someone who changed my life,” he ended.
