The Sarpatta Parambarai actor also spoke about how Dulquer had put him at ease on sets. Shabeer added, "There is another incident when we were acting in a house, my house. We were doing a scene, and he comes up to me and is like, ‘Shabeer, does this scene work for you? I did this thing, and does it work for you?’ My first reaction was, ‘Aren’t you a star? Why are you talking to me like this? It felt like theater to me. It felt like going back home and doing theater. That broke everything for me. From that day on, I was at ease.’
Shabeer Kallarakkal further elaborated on his off-screen bond with Dulquer as he said, "Even though I did not go to him and discuss, I was at ease whenever we had scenes. I was like, ‘OK, fine. This is sorted. I do not have to worry about it. That is the kind of ease I had on the sets with him." Aishwarya Lekshmi reaffirmed what Shabeer said and revealed that Dulquer never acts starry. She also joked that the Charlie actor should change his name to Dulquer Easy Salmaan.
