He attended the party with filmmaker Anurag Kashyap and his then-wife, actress Kalki Koechlin. In an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Gulshan recalled, “We went in Kalki’s car. The entrance to Mannat is not what people think it is. I stayed at the party for about three hours, but I felt very uncomfortable. I kept feeling like I didn’t belong there. That feeling was a big realisation for me that I shouldn’t feel like I don’t belong. But I did.”

He described the star-studded party where he saw big names like Karan Johar, Vidhu Vinod Chopra, and Farhan Akhtar. “Everyone there was a big personality. Shah Rukh spoke to me very nicely, and even Gauri Khan was very sweet. I also had a long conversation with Australian actor Joel Edgerton. I kept looking at him, wondering, ‘Where have I seen you before?’”

Gulshan admitted that, despite the warm welcome, he couldn’t shake off the feeling that he didn’t fit in. “Those people are all high achievers. If I want to feel like I belong in this industry, I should feel comfortable in such situations. But for those three hours, I just wanted to leave. I don’t feel that way anymore, but back then, I did.”
