Anil Kapoor says he was destined to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi and feels "honoured and privileged" to have met him.
The 62-year-old actor, who met the prime minister recently, said he has been trying to meet him since he was Gujarat chief minister.
"It was wonderful meeting him. I had been wanting to meet him since he was the chief minister of Gujarat but it never happened.
"There are certain meetings which are destined. So, I was fortunate and had the privilege and honour to meet him. It was very inspirational. I have never seen someone working so hard," Anil told reporters.
When asked if he would like to see Modi as the PM again, Anil said, "That's for all of us (to decide), we will see. This is not a political platform."
When asked about his absence from the film, Kumar said, "It would have been a lot more fun if Sanjay Dutt had been there but his dates were not available. It left both of us unhappy."
