Heres Ajay talking about his journey and experiences during the making of U Me Aur Hum.

Your second baby (after Nysa) U Me Aur Hum was delivered last week? How does it feel?

(laughs) No, there is no comparison because Nysa is Nysa and I dont think I can compare her with anything in the world.

So is it you who went through the labour pains this time around?

Ya. Right now the labour pains are on because there were a lot of things to be done before the release but I think its fine (smiles)

When did you decide to take the plunge into direction? Was it a gradual decision or a spur of the moment thought?

It was never a decisionâ€¦.it was a thought, an idea which I had in my mind, and I started working on it. It shaped up so beautifully that I decided to make it myself. I had always been on the other side of the camera before I became an actor but I never really planned when I would direct my first film

Whom did you first convey your decision to direct?

Kajol (smiles). She heard the script and loved it and she immediately said I want to do the film.
