Sharing the video, he wrote, “They say a man finds his true worth in the challenges he picks along the way. It took me 4 years to bring this special story out to the world. But it was that long, enduring wait which also taught me the many invaluable lessons of the craft."
"Kai Po Che was one of the stories that demand excellence. It got the best out of everyone involved. The exhausting months spent hustling in the heat of Gujarat find fruition in the immense love this film has garnered over the years. I feel so content to have had the opportunity to tell this story exactly the way I wanted to and am grateful for the legacy it has left. 22022022," he added.
