However, Salman just came before the scene, so we did not get a chance to have a formal introduction. While we were shooting our first scene together, he called me Chachi Jaan and suddenly lifted me. At first, I was shocked because I wasn’t expecting this as it wasn’t a part of the script, besides it was the first-ever interaction. But that broke the ice, and we all had a hearty laugh over it later.”
