"However, I am grateful that through 'Maharaj', people are becoming aware of such an unsung hero who has shaped our society. Happy birthday, sir, and bless us from above," he wrote in a moving note on Karsandas' birth anniversary. Previously, in an exclusive behind-the-scenes video, the director also thanked Aditya Chopra for supporting his vision and bringing 'Maharaj' to life.
