"I am a huge admirer of Naseer, both as an actor and a stage director. He has a formidable reputation on stage and is reckoned as an actor of substance. So when Shabbir told me that Naseer was directing the film, I had half made up my mind about the film," Bollywood Trade quoted Konkona as saying. 

She said the experience of working with Naseer proved to be as gratifying as she had expected. 

"Naseer exudes the same energy as director as in his performances. Working with him gave me a new creative high."

Salloni bowled over by Salman's chivalry 

Newcomer Salloni Aswani, who plays the female lead in Saawan Kumar's forthcoming film "Saawan - The Love Season", is impressed with Salman Khan's affability and helping nature, reports Bollywood Trade. 

"He is the kind of person who goes out of his way to cooperate with his co-stars. What I liked most about him is the way he'd come to my rescue," she said.

"At times Saawan would not be able to hear me in the din and reprimand me for not reciting a dialogue properly. But Salman would tell him that he'd heard me say it properly. He's a fabulous co-star to work with and having him for a co-star is a big privilege," she said. 

Salloni plays a student who falls in love with a young boy (Kapel Jhaveri) after much persuasion. 

"The story takes a turn when Salman arrives and gives a big twist to the plot. The fun-loving girl suddenly finds herself coping with a very different set of circumstances," she said.

A die-hard Salman fan, Salloni hasn't missed a single film of her favourite star.
