"I remember we were in Vishal Sir's office discussing the costume and other things when he handed me the headphones and asked me to listen to this song. That's when I first heard 'Dhan Te Nan' and it gave me an understanding of what I had to do in the movie. So, it's because of Vishal Sir and this song that I could pull off Guddu's role," he said.
Later, Anjana, Vishal and Shahid also grooved on the track 'Dhan Te Nan'.
