Thank you Mukesh Chhabra for introducing me to Mr. Basu. Had made beautiful memories with my reel daughter, Kizie Basu (Sanjana Sanghi). A special thank you to Mrs. Basu (Swastika Mukherjee), without whom the role of Mr. Basu would’ve been incomplete. Sahil Vaid. You were too good! Lots of love to you, hopefully we would share screen next time.
SUSHANT….. you are in my heart. You felt like family to me. Your smile, your bear hugs would always stay with me. Thanks to the entire team behind #DilBechara,” Saswata shared on Facebook on Tuesday.
