In 1982 when I was looking for work in Mumbai and the conditions weren't good, those days director #mheshbhtttt lived in a small flat under his house. I always had a good one! They used to treat breakfast etc too! Basically he was always good to me! And then #Saaransh happened!! But I never forgot Rajan's kindness and generosity! Meeting him after 39 years in Dubai felt so so good. Here is a small video about our respective journeys! Thank you dear Rajan for your kindness in my days of hardship! #Gratitude #Kindness #Friend"
