“Well, to my surprise there was no audition. I met Abbas-Mustan and they spoke to me for a good one hour. My manager called and said that I am in for the project. I did not even ask whether they want my pictures or an audition. I didn’t want to lose out on the film, I was like ‘great’. When we started shooting, I asked Abbas-Mustan bhai why they did not do my audition and what made them sign me. They had not even seen my TV show ‘Just Mohabbat’.
They said,
“Vastal, we auditioned and met like a lot of guys, at least 40-50 guys. They said that everybody used to come to their office and everyone would wear tight shirts, sleeves, and jackets. They were fully dressed up and showing off their physique and muscles’. They said you were the only one who came in a simple shirt and jeans, and they felt like oh this is the boy.”
