Asked why he said yes to the film, the actor said that he was a Rohit Shetty fan always and enjoys being part of his films. He also said that his fans wanted him to do such mass roles as he didn’t do any after Dabangg. “My job is to entertain fans and they want masala entertainers. So I will be doing it,” he said.
