He said it in a very funny way. My producers are really happy with the kind of subjects that I’m choosing and the kind of return they get. I’m really happy about that. After all, this is a business. We do bring in the creative aspect. But eventually, you have to earn money also and that becomes very important for the final result.”

It was very important too at this time and I give full credit to the entire team. Somebody told me this thing and I want to share in a positive way…that after watching Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 several people said that they didn’t miss Bhool Bhulaiyaa. And it’s a proud feeling for both the films.”
