Narrating the incident, Rajkummar shares, "It was quite filmy actually. I had read a cutting in a newspaper that a show was being made for TV. I was in 11th standard. We didn't know the difference between TV and films. I just wanted to act. So I called them and (this person) asked me to meet him. I cycled all the way to South Ext in Delhi. They had a typical office. The man had a photo with everyone from Gulshan Grover to Raza Murad. I thought he knew everyone. He said it would cost me 10,000 rupees for a photo shoot. My mother borrowed money and gave me 10,000 rupees and he then got my photoshoot done at Kalindi Kunj Park. Then I got a call that I had been selected. I was on my knees thinking I made it in life. I was all set. After three days, when I went to meet him that place was empty. The office was locked and no one was there. I asked people around me about it. They said, what happened, are you here to act? I said yes. They told me they had run away."
