Earlier we used to have a proper fan meet events where we had a lot of interaction, but now it's not possible anymore. I did a lot of live sessions, some just for fun, some to raise funds for good causes. But in these live sessions, the interaction is usually limited to only comments. So the idea was to take the meet and greet format into the virtual world where we can all have fun. Then we thought why not sort of help them win something and make it more fun and UNIQUE."

Nick calls it the most awaited collab ever. "You can take men out of Dombivali but never Dombivali out of men...Hai na @ajinkyarahane"
