Malhotra said only Kajol could fit into the role perfectly. "To me, she was the ideal actress, wife and mother, and that's what she plays in my film," he said.

The director doesn't stop just there. He raves about Kajol's punctuality and dedication and "how she grills you if you haven't done your homework."

Malhotra goes on to say that if Kajol had refused the film, he probably wouldn't have made it at all! Well, we wonder what he would have done then!
