Sawarn Sivia mentioned in the interview that Sridevi had watched Amar Singh Chamkila perform and expressed interest in collaborating with him in a film. However, Chamkila declined her offer, stating that he couldn’t speak Hindi. Despite Sridevi’s offer to arrange Hindi training within a month, Chamkila declined, citing a potential loss of ₹10 lakh during that time. Sridevi then proposed to work on a Punjabi film with him, but unfortunately, it never materialized.
