Anupam Kher's visually impaired persona was conceived in Chhodo Kal Ki Baatein just 15 minutes before the first day of shooting was to begin.
The veteran actor essays the role of a social commentator. When he reached the sets he told director Pramod Gajanan Joshi that his screen person should also be visually impaired.
Apparently the idea struck Anupam in the lift. Film ko bhi lift kara dega kya?
