Earlier, Dhanush attended the USA premiere of The Gray Man along with the entire cast and crew and left them laughing when he revealed how he bagged the film. When he was asked at the media interaction how he ended up in the film, Dhanush said, “I don't know how I ended up in this film. The casting agency in India told me that there was a Hollywood project. I was like, 'ok'. He said it was a big film. I asked, 'which film?' He said that it was a big film. Then, I asked him to share the details. It couldn't get bigger than this. Of course, I don't have much screentime. But, I was super thrilled. I was looking for an opportunity to explore and to learn more. This was such an amazing opportunity. I hope I delivered."
