“But I made him a little uncomfortable. Even though we had breakfast at the same table while going to the studio, I went in the car and he came by bus; on the way back also this would happen. He had to travel by train with the unit and stay with them in a room shared by four people." The filmmaker revealed that he travelled in this manner for three films, not just one.
