The actor said, “Tribhugha was one of the projects where I really felt that there was such a joy to work with the entire artists. I had a wonderful time to work with them – with them all,”, the actor said.
Kajol was recently seen in ‘Maa’, which was released on 27 June. She will next be seen in ‘Sarzemin’, including Prithviraj Sukumaran and Ibrahim Ali Khan. The film is scheduled to release on 25 July.
