The veteran actor recalled his old days when he would just "walk around" in a film, and it would become a hit. Saif asked him to be "prepared" and a "quick learner". Next, he opened up about the message he received from Priyanka. Calling it a "sweet message", the actor shared that she watched the film and said that he has a "bright future". However, he asked him to grow a thick skin and keep grinding.

"She said I have to hold my head high and keep grinding; and that I must grow a thick skin. Coming from someone as accomplished as she is, I felt really comforted and motivated," recalled Ibrahim.
