On Murder Mubarak we’d sit after wrapping the shoot and regale each other with so many stories of the various journeys we’ve experienced and I realised that however different we are, we are so similar at the core. I also realised that there’s an inherent goodness which we look for in people, and with Pankaj the positivity and sensitivity is what he’s about! I’m really grateful we had this experience and I know that I’ve come out of it a better person for it.”
