Aman recounted, "Feroz was glowering behind his camera, and before I could offer him my meagre excuse, he cut me down to size. 'Begum, you're late, and you're going to pay for the delay.' No argument, no scolding, but you can be sure that he docked my pay to compensate the crew for that one-hour delay!"
