"I could've started another film after ‘Popcorn’; there were offers aplenty. But I didn't want to start a film for the sake of starting one, for the sake of being busy," Kabir says. The actor-director says it wasn't tough getting the cast in order. "I had narrated the script to Dimple almost three years ago. The fact that she agreed to wait till I had the project in place, speaks volumes of her faith in the script. Convincing Nana wasn't tough either. He loved the role and also the script in entirety. Nana hasn't portrayed a role like this before, to the best of my knowledge," Kabir says.

With Suniel, it was the other way round. Kabir had approached Suniel with the script a couple of years ago. There was no contact in between. Suddenly, one fine day, Suniel picked up the script, read its first four pages and immediately asked his manager to fix up a meeting with Kabir. "He was floored by the script," Kabir reminisces.

Although ‘Tum Milo To Sahi’ looks at three different stories, Kabir clarifies that the stories don't appear in an episodic format like ‘Salaam-E-Ishq’ or ‘Metro’. "The three pairs connect with each other at several points. In fact, the stories are interconnected," he states. Incidentally, all three stories are picked up from real life. Kabir and his co-writers Rajen Makhijani and Sameer Siddiqui have modelled the characters around people they know and have interacted with closely.

Most directors often complain that it's tough to get the right producer to back their project, but Kabir feels he has the support of a thorough professional in producer Nikhil Panchamiya. "He has tremendous faith in the script and my abilities. He could've started any other film, but he chose this one. He keeps telling me, make it the way you had envisioned it, let's not cut corners," Kabir asserts.
