‘I chose to express a quieter truth’
The actor explained that, although the character he played was very different from himself, he felt a strong personal connection to the scene. “While this character was very different from him there was something intensely personal in this scene that he connected with.

The actor shared, he and writer Sandeep, worked closely on it, keeping his own journey and the way he has built his personal and professional life in mind while shaping this moment.
