So he interrupted us by asking whether we were planning something interesting and I randomly replied that we were planning to shoot a short film with him. Hearing this he got really excited and he asked me what the story was. Believe it or not, at that very moment, I came up with the idea for the film, that we could have a man selling coconuts on beach and talking about himself. Similar is his trait as he loves to talk.
