During the virtual chat, the duo shared their experiences working in 'RHTDM', which marked the Bollywood debut of both Dia and Madhavan.
Dia recalled, "We were travelling from one place to another for 14-18 hours, constantly going from one place to another. We would often catch up on our sleep in the flight. The film was also shot that way - we had shot in South Africa, New Zealand, Australia and Mumbai. The film's release date was announced before we finished the bhaag daur."
She also remembered how Madhavan had predicted that the film would connect with the audiences, and how it has come true despite the initial failure.
