The ‘Noor Jahan’ star continued, “So I got a message from her, ‘There is a feature film and we want you to do it. So send us your contact details’. I shared my contact details with them, we had a conversation and then she sent me a monologue from Ae Dil Hai Mushkil which was performed by Ranbir Kapoor in the movie. She asked me to perform it in my style.”
“I recorded the scene in my home studio and sent them the clip. They liked it and asked me for the rest of the details. All this while, I thought she must be aware of the fact that I am from Pakistan but she didn’t and somehow believed that I’m from Kolkata,” Raza detailed. “But then I informed them I’m from Lahore.”
