He wrote in a long caption, “My 37th birthday in cinema… My first film #Saaransh completes 37 years today. It was the best debut an actor could dream of. I was 28 playing a 65-year-old teacher named #BVPradhan. Certain scenes are still part of my soul”. Further on, he added that the film holds immense importance in his career and thanked director Mahesh Bhatt and the audiences. “If I am still around it is because #Saaransh was my first film. Thank you #BhattSaab for your faith and courage. Thank you @rajshrifilms for your belief. And most of all thank you my dearest audiences for your trust”.
