Recalling the incident, Kapil narrated, “I met Rahman sir one day and he said, ‘I called you for Chamkila.’ I think he wanted me to sing a song or something.

Expressing his regret, Kapil humorously shared, “He said this to me in a serious manner. I said, ‘Sir, we were overseas and which is why we couldn’t speak to each other.’” The comedian lamented missing the chance to collaborate with AR Rahman, jokingly remarking, “I felt really bad, I cried the whole night. It was unfortunate.”
Imtiaz Ali added a humorous twist, mentioning that Rahman had jokingly indicated Kapil as the backup choice if Diljit Dosanjh couldn’t be a part of the film.
