“I like to sit at home and drink hot tea while looking outside window when it is raining. It’s windy and pleasant. The sound of leaves is good too and greenery makes me feel very positive. My all-time favourite song is Na Jane Kaha Se Aayi Hai from film Chaalbaz (1989). It’s a girlie song. Sridevi’s expressions, dance and lyrics of the songs are awesome.”

Actor Mohammad Nazim.

“My favourite song is Mohabbat Barsa Dena Tu Saawan Aaya Hai from film Creature 3D (2014). It’s peppy and sounds very good when I listen to it while driving. I love to go on long drives and enjoy sight seeing on the way. Rains makes me feel very romantic at heart and I love to sing too.”

“What I can remember from rain is Tip tip barsa paani from Mohra (1994). It gives me a refreshing feeling,makes me happy joyful and hungry. I feel like eating more of bhajiyas and samosas during monsoons. Even in childhood I used to be very happy when it used to rain as we used to get school off. Now when we take a break from shooting, i I go out and enjoy the monsoons. I have fond memories of spending time in Delhi with friends during monsoons and hearing music in car.”
