I didn't want to do Guddu initially. The producer, Prem Lalwani, had written a story about a 12-year-old boy. But he told me, 'I feel you are Guddu and I want to narrate the story to you.'I told him,'I know Iam good but no stretch of imagination can I play a 12-year-old boy.' The man then said that he would change it to a college boy. While he was narrating the story, he started crying. This 6'4", rich, NRI businessman crying was a sight I could not handle. Then he said,'it has happened to my son. My son is modern and he didn't believe that one could cure a fatal disease by believing in God. I did and now he is a cured man.' I would not have done the film if it was given to me as a written script, but when I saw this man and his belief, I accepted the film. I can imagine what he went through because I've gone through a similar experience with my parents."
