Or Kartik, who has given us films that resonate with the entire country and has given films that brought people back to the theatres”.

But I met Nikkhil Advani sir here in Melbourne who then offered me Batla House and even my producers of Sita Raman, I met in Melbourne. So this festival holds a very special place in my heart. I always love coming back here”. ALSO READ: Karan Johar gives a shout-out to Kili Paul as he dances to ‘What Jhumka?’ from Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani
