The film will mark the debut of Humaima in Bollywood.reports The Times of India.

`Before meeting Emraan, I had thought he would be like what he is in films. I thought he would be a 'besharam' (shameless). But when I first met him, he ignored me completely and was busy in his work. I messaged my family saying in real life he is a nice guy,` Humaima told reporters here at the trailer launch of 'Raja Natwarlal'.

Humaima reveals she is a big fan of the 35-year-old 'Shanghai' star.

`I like him and all his films. I am a big fan of him. I watch every film of his with my friends there (Pakistan). I had great experience working with him. He made me comfortable and is a funny guy,` she said.

Though she comes from neighbouring country Pakistan, India too is like her home`I have come here before and I love being here. I am happy I got to work in both the countries. I am glad this film came my way I had a lovely experience doing this film,` she said.
