The film will mark my debut in Bollywood and is also my comeback in acting after two years, so I’m very excited and equally nervous. The experience was splendid and as it was my first film so it was much of a learning experience. Working with Ashutosh Giwarikar sir was a wonderful opportunity. I actually almost left acting but I have made a comeback after two years under the guidance of Ashutosh Sir and I’m really hopeful this film works for me,” Abhishek told India Forums.
