Ahmed Khan said, “Sunny and I have been friends for decades, and his support has always meant a lot to me. During my first directorial venture, I remember getting a call from his office while I was playing football. When I went to meet him, he immediately said yes to the film. I didn’t even have to share a full script, just the basic plotline. He loved the idea, hopped onto it and asked his team to close the shoot dates at the earliest with me.”

Ahmed Khan has been credited for directing some of the massy entertainers like Baaghi 2 & 3, Heropanti 2 and is all geared up to commence the marathon schedule of Welcome to the Jungle soon.
