I also spoke to David sir. David sir even waited for me to return to India—he waited for 25 days just to meet me. But there was this one man… that is why I say I will be very emotionally attached to this film. Because I consider it the last recommendation by Satish Shah. Satish ji was also David Dhawan’s batchmate and a very close friend. David sir had asked Satish ji how Rajesh is as an actor, and he recommended my name.”He posted the photo along with the caption, “Moment we can’t forget great Satish shah ji.. this film is his LAST RECOMMENDATION for me…we miss you kaka.. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻thanks @amitbhatia1509 for reminding me this #haijawanitohishqhonahai.” Kumar then concluded his emotional note by adding that “wherever he is, I think he is blessing us with this great film that we are a part of.”Rajesh Kumar and Satish Shah have known each other since they co-starred on the hit TV sitcom, ‘Sarabhai vs. Sarabhai’ as the father and son duo.
