Speaking to Filmfare, Jha said, “Working with a seasoned actress like Priyanka was enjoyable because she readily accepted me as an actor.�� She made me feel easy.�� Sometimes things do get tiring – being behind the camera and in front of it.�� But I had planned things out in advance.”

Chopra too spoke of her experience acting with the director, saying, “I’d coax him to rehearse his lines.�� We also bonded because I’m half bihari and half Punjabi.�� He’s a revelation considering how cultured and well-informed he is.�� I’ve begun reading Hindi literature because of him.”

‘Jai Gangaajal releases on 4th March 2016.
