He shared, “Aamir-Hirani’s team worked hard to gain trust. Aamir Khan and Rajkumar Hirani’s project was a surprise for me too. He just got to know that they have tied up, but their assistant producer, Hindukush Bhardwaj, has been in touch with him for the last three years. He used to meet him again and again, do research, and ask for details. He told him clearly, you guys are working honestly, you go ahead, he has no objection.

Chandrashekhar praised Aamir Khan and Rajkumar Hirani’s team for “working hard to gain their trust.” He was pleased Aamir would play Dadasaheb Phalke, citing Aamir’s seriousness and honesty. Chandrashekhar also suggested casting Vidya Balan as his grandmother, Saraswatibai Phalke.
