But it is all in the destiny, I didn’t have the privilege to work with him. I missed the opportunity because I was in Delhi this was for the film ‘Love Story’. There is a term called ‘teleology’ which means that a person has an ultimate purpose in this world and Brahmanand’s teleology was making films on RD Burman.”
