everybody around him to be happy. He is a nomad, going out of his way to
please people.

Mumbai Mirror, Padukone stated that her character is a fan of the
French comic series,
Asterix, which takes place in
Corsica,
France.

They both explore the island and, along the way, they form a troupe of
sorts to stage dramatic plays and also fall passionately in love.

Tamasha as it refers to the
Shakespearean monologue, '
All the world's a stage and all the men and women merely players'.
