Calling 3 Idiots and Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara her favourite Bollywood movies, Iman said Bollywood actor Farhan Akhtar is one of the most fascinating people she has worked with. “My experience working with Farhan was amazing, he has so many stories to share. On set, we’d have quiet moments, and he would just be telling me stories about going sky-diving, what it’s like filming other movies and his career in general. I find him such a fascinating person to listen to and he looks so cool in our show. It’s crazy that I grew up watching him, and now I am working with him.”
