In an interview with Mid-Day, Emraan said Rishi is nothing like his social media posts, “Far from it. I had the same perception based on his Twitter [feed], but he is a sweetheart.

He revealed that he was in touch with Rishi during his treatment and since there was a similar situation in his life he could relate with it. “I was in touch with Rishiji during his treatment. So, I knew it would take some time. I have had a similar tragedy in my family, although the cancer was different. I knew it was treatable, more so because Rishiji was strong. The makers patiently waited for him. It wasn’t like anyone was thinking about the delay. Money was riding on the project, but everyone was forthcoming,” said Emraan while speaking to Mid-Day.

Talking about their film ‘The Body’ Emraan said, the producers asked him to watch the Spanish film. After seeing the movie, he knew he had to do it. He said, “This film is unpredictable. The director [Oriol Paulo] has also made The Invisible Guest, on which Badla was based. I choose films based on my gut feeling, and I had a strong instinct about this one.

Meanwhile, on the work front, Emraan will be seen next in ‘Chehre’ in which he will feature alongside Amitabh Bachchan. Talking about working with Big B and Rishi Kapoor he said, “Their commitment to the craft [is unmatched]; they sit and rehearse with us. There are actors half their age who directly land up on the set.
