They go back a long way as colleagues and have fond memories of working together. He is also a huge fan of Rani’s work and he showed his huge appreciation for Rani by gifting a special portrait of her,” informs the source.

It also shows the kind of affection and appreciation and respect that technicians and crew members have for Rani as a person and her body of work.”
