I mean, it's always a fantastic experience to just meet him and to share the screen with him and then to get to work with him. There was so much to learn. Of course, I knew I would learn a lot as an actor and everything, but I was not prepared for... What actually hit me was... I got to know why he is where he is and why he is the Badshaah," he said.
