“I play a merchant navy officer and will appear in an important sequence in the period drama. It’s a small but significant, quirky character with funny elements. We were active in the theatre and the dramatics circuit at the time and during the shoot we would often reminisce about those days. When he offered me this part of a captain of the ship, I immediately took it on.” Satish Kaushik told Mumbai Mirror.
