“They say Shah Rukh is a businessman, commercial minded, so am I. The fact is he knew the budget of “Hey Raam”, He just wanted to be part of it. When the budget of Hey Raam ran over, he didn’t ask for remuneration.” said Kamal Haasan who further added that Shah Rukh just received a wrist watch from him for acting in “Hey Raam”. The filmmaker added that he got the Hindi rights of the film. “I am so happy that he got the rights as he completely deserves it. He is a partner of Hey Raam and it is rightful that the Hindi rights are with him. I am glad” said Kamal Haasan in the interaction.
