The 43-year-old said it was his dream to work with Sridevi and he immediately said yes to “Mom”.

“It was my dream to work with m’am, she works on lot of detailing to her character, she inspires everyone. It was a dream to work with her so I had thought whenever I get an opportunity I will grab it,” he said
