While making "Hawa Hawaai", all of director Amol Gupte's focus was on bringing out a quality product rather than impressing or pampering the cast members.
"There are no inflated egos on this set. The film is bigger than everyone else and everyone is doing the best they can for the film. That is what counts," Gupte said in a statement.
"Hawa Hawaai" stars Saqib Saleem.
The director did not even place any vanity vans on the set.
"There were no vanity vans but we never felt like we needed one. The environment was so warm and family-like on the sets that there was no room for any vanity on the set- vans or otherwise," he said.
The film also stars Gupte's son Partho.

Delhi winter refreshes Big B's childhood memories
He has spent many years in Mumbai, but for megastar Amitabh Bachchan Delhi's charm is unmatched.
Having spent a considerable part of his growing up years in the city, the superstar took to his blog to share the "special feeling" Delhi invoked in him on a recent visit.
"Winters in Delhi are magnificent! Comparisons with other winters all over the world may not be a fair judge of what this means - each destination has its own interpretations of it. But for one that has spent some of the most formative days here it has its own special meaning," Bachchan posted on his blog srbachchan.tumblr.com Sunday.
The 71-year-old, who was in the capital to attend an event, made sure to visit his old house.
On the work front, the actor is currently shooting for his film "Bhootnath Returns".
