You won't believe, I would reach the set early in the morning. Early morning at five, I would enter that village in Punjab and the people of that village would stand outside their homes just to welcome me. For those 2.5 months, everyday they would come of out of there homes and greet me with folded hands and say, ‘Sat Sri Akaal.' They used to wait, welcome me and they never disturbed me, never stopped my car. Nothing. They used to just welcome me with folded hands and, after pack up at three in the afternoon, again, every person would be standing outside their house and they would wish me goodnight.”
