‘A bit serious but he scored a lot of runs’

“A passionate guy. A hard worker when it comes to his craft. A bit serious, but he scored a lot of runs. He always wore his heart on his sleeve. As for his temperament, he can be very irascible. But everyone has a different character.

“Gautam is someone who once got into a fight with a truck driver in Delhi. He got out of his car and climbed onto the truck to grab the driver by the collar because he had taken a wrong turn and was swearing at him. I said, ‘Gauti, what are you doing?’ So that made him Gautam,” Chopra said.
