Very! The first two days of shooting, I went up to dad and said that if you're going to be on the sets, I'm not going to be able to act! So he looked at me and said, 'I'm the director of the film!'

So he sat in another room in front of the video assist, and talked to me through the mike. I didn't want to see my father when I was shooting because that would freak me out! It's natural; he's my dad at the end of the day.

But by the end of the third day, you learn how to cut off.

But the cut off was not definite either. Like, I never called my father 'sir;' I called him 'papa' only. But I'd be professional on set, and he becomes a father again in the car.

Tell us about your first brush with stardom -- the first time a stranger recognised you on the streets.

It hasn't happened to me, honestly. Nobody recognises me yet. The other day I went to the chemist. I walked the streets aram se, and no one recognised me. I'm hoping that people start recognising me.
