Kaushal concluded his note of appreciation with a sweet request to director Rai, asking the latter to include the former in Rai’s next directorial venture.

And of course, the director could not help himself from responding to the request in his charming way. Rai shared Kaushal’s story after penning a reply to the actor’s request as well.
