When director Tanuja Chandra asked Shiney, who is known for his dedication, to use glycerine he refused.
However he assured her that there would be tears and, sure enough, the minute the camera rolled tears rolled down Shiney's cheeks.
Chandra captured the touching moment executed beautifully by the actor - that ironically brought a smile on the faces of the unit members.
Produced by BAG Films "Zindaggi Rocks" also stars Sushmita Sen who plays a rock star in the film and Shiney's love interest.
