New Delhi [India], July 1(ANI): Akshaye Khanna, who plays a significant role in his upcoming film 'Mom', says it was 'tough' to work with Sridevi as she is too good with her work and that's the problem.

The whole cast of 'Mom' was in the national capital to promote their upcoming film and shared their experiences while working for such a different kind of film.

While talking exclusively to ANI, the 'Dil Chahta Hai' actor said, "When you working with talent like her, you have to be very careful because you can look like a fool."

He added, "It was exciting but at the same scary and so one needs to be very careful while working with great talents whether its ma'am or Nawaz."

The 'Hulchul' actor also said that if given chance, he would love to work with Nawaz again.

The 42-year-old actor, who was last seen in the Varun Dhawan and John Abraham starrer 'Dishoom' last year, had been away from the silver screen for four years and is coming back with a bang.

Known for films like 'Dil Chahta Hai', 'Border', 'Race', 'Taal' and 'Humraaz', Akshaye is now gearing up to be seen in 'Mom' and 'Ittefaq'. He believes cinema is a collaborative art where working with great talent whether it is co-actors, director or other technicians, helps to improve one's performance.

Helmed by Ravi Udyawar, the film also stars Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Sridevi in main roles and is scheduled to release on July 7.
