Anshuman also shared why he didn't take up fresh work after wrapping "Hum Bhi Akele Tum Bhi Akele".

He said: "This has been a hard year for me owing to my mother's health, and therefore I did not taken up work after wrapping 'Hum Bhi Akele Tum Bhi Akele'. It also took me some time to get out of the zone mentally as playing a homosexual in 'Hum Bhi Akele' had drained me. But this is a film I wish to prep hard... One film at a time is the mantra."
