While talking about Khan, Kanungo said, “I had some scenes with him and when we were doing those scenes he was helping me out and telling me do this … do that.

Honestly, I am much taller than him, I am 6’ 4, I am much taller than most people, and he lifted me up so easily, I was quite shocked by that actually. It was like an action sequence and I was like readying myself to be picked up, but it was almost like he was a character from a film.”
