The filmmaker revealed that the audience is in for a surprise in Dil Bechara. "He [Sushant Singh Rajput] works very hard. That's the main point. Everyone will be happily surprised after seeing his work in Dil Bechara," Mukesh Chhabra told a website.


He also said that since he shares a good rapport with Sushant off screen, working with him in Dil Bechara was even a better experience.

"I scold him a lot. He is outstanding. I am glad that we have such great bonding. Work becomes easier and fun when you're with friends," added the filmmaker.

With Dil Bechara, casting director Mukesh Chhabra is making a transition in Bollywood. Talking about this switch to direction, Chhabra said, "You start developing an interest. I have been as assistant director. Even when I audition actors, I direct them. I have worked with almost every director and understand my interest. I do not want to be an actor. I shoot scenes with actors while shortlisting them. So, I felt I should get into direction and grabbed this chance."

Dil Bechara is set to hit the screens on November 29.
