Talking to IANS, the actor elaborated on the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity of working with Dharmendra. “To stand with him in the same frame on screen is something that deserves to be recorded in history. It's a historic moment in my life that I got to do even one film with a legend like Dharmendra, despite not belonging to his era. This is a very big thing for me.”
He added, “I wish I had done five or ten more films with him, but now he is no more.” The actor further said, “Whatever I have said about him comes from such an amazing experience that I don’t even need to say anything more. He was mine, and he will always remain with me. The love he gave me will stay with me forever! The whole country will miss him.”

Main woh Umar Bhar yaad rakhunga, Sir. Aap bahut yaad aayenge. (There’s nothing I can really say. Just this much – the love you gave me in these few days, I will remember it for a lifetime, Sir. You will be deeply missed," he wrote in the caption.
He further added, “This world will miss the one and only Jatt Yamla Pagla Deewana. RIP Dharam ji @aapkadharam." Dharmendra, for the uninitiated, around mid-November was admitted to Mumbai’s Breach Candy Hospital.
