Mumbai : Director Kannan Iyer had to convince actor Emraan Hashmi about the practice of black magic and evil eye in Mumbai when he was approached with the script of Ek Thi Daayan that deals with witchcraft.
Emraan Hashmi was skeptical about the real-time relevance of black magic.

Mr Iyer said: "We often don't pay attention to our immediate surroundings. But there are so many groups in our country that believe in these cults and they leave a certain mark in certain places.
