“It took a lot of convincing from Dia and Sahil to get me on board this film. I had my own questions regarding the film, my role and where I would fit in a movie which has a female protagonist,” informed Ali.

Ali is currently shooting Khamoshiyan, which has prevented him from touring cities for promotions of Bobby Jasoos post that, he will start shooting for Ramesh Sippy‘s Sonali Cable opposite Rhea Chakraborty.[/tps_footer]
