My father and mother have both contributed to who we are, just like all parents do but they've contributed in different ways I think. A lot of my fearlessness comes from my Mother."

When Alaya F was asked about her next films and also these rumours in a recent interview, she said, "I am not at liberty to talk about my forthcoming projects, but I must say a lot of amazing stuff is coming up. As far as the latter part of the question is concerned, well, it’s not true. They (Rhea and Harsh Varrdhan) are wonderful people and I have known Harsh for a long time. He is very well-versed in all things related to movies and it is always fun to have a chat with him. After a feature film, I did a music video and would also like to explore the digital space. I am looking at doing everything and don’t want to restrict myself as a performer to one medium."

But Devgn didn't bat an eyelid before reshooting a song after he came across music composer Gourov Dasgupta's Hanjugam. Director Abhishek Dudhaiya had filmed another love ballad, featuring Devgn. “During the music sessions of The Big Bull [which was produced by Devgn], Ajay sir heard Hanjugam. He immediately said that he wants it for Bhuj. Later, I was told that they had already shot another song, but Ajay sir loved this track so much that the director and he reshot the sequence,†exclaims Dasgupta, thrilled that the actor went the extra mile for his composition. He adds, “Something like this hardly ever happens in the industry. I was overwhelmed and full of gratitude when I heard this.â€
