Rumour has it that Aamir was losing sleep over the film completing production, because he was unsure how he might react to its brilliance or otherwise.
When the script was finished for him to read, Khan pressed Kiran to go visit his cousin and they would all read it together, hoping that if both he and his cousin disliked it "at least I'd have numbers on my side".
"It's so delicate and beautiful. Her characters speak in such a different and unique voice, and all of that hit me and I thought, 'Wow I married a really talented woman here,'" gushed Khan.
When I fell in love the first time, I didn't know how really talented she was. When I read the script I was really amazed and I fell in love with her again," he continued his outburst of love.
Set in the Mumbai monsoon season, Shai's (Monica Dogra) feelings for Arun and Zohaib (Prateik) in the teeming metropolis forms a major part of the plot.
