Ahaan recalls memories of working under Shradhha
Taking to his Instagram Stories on Tuesday, Ahaan reposted Shradhha's mention. He went on to add a note in the caption, which read, “Working under you on Rock On 2, being assigned to fix your piano, the serendipity of assisting on a rock music film, to getting to be a part of one… I remember you taking out the time to speak to me for a few seconds, and your words weighing heavy on me.”
He continued, “You made me feel seen at a time when very few did, in such a small short conversation and that's why you're magic, maybe a little glimmer of that magic spilled onto me and that's why the universe allowed me to have this moment.”
Ahaan worked as an assistant director on Rock On 2, which starred Shraddha along with Farhan Akhtar, Arjun Rampal and Shahana Goswami. The film, directed by Shujaat Saudagar, was released in 2016.
