Gautam Gulati talks about his meeting with Sanjay Leela Bhansali:

When asked about his meeting with Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Gautam revealed, "Yes, I had met him twice coincidentally. Once I met him on a flight while we were traveling to London, and he was sleeping on a seat, that was next to me. But at that time, I met him but didn't talk much. But later, when I met him for the second time outside his house, we talked properly. I was with my driver, and he showed me Sanjay sir's house, and then we saw sir walking outside. I then got out of my car, and he recognized me. We then spoke for 15-20 minutes while walking with him."

Gautam reveals missing a role in Heeramandi:

Further, he added, "He is a very positive man, and he is the greatest artist ever. The top Indian filmmaker and every actor want to work with him. I have always been a huge fan of him. That's when he informed me that there was a role for me that had gone to some other person. It was in Heeramandi. I told him that it was not a problem and this is life, but whenever he thinks there is a role for me, I told him to let me know. He showed me how to connect with his team, and I'm in touch with them. I told Sanjay, sir, that I would wait for a role in your film for the next 5 years. He told me that I'm a nice person and he will do something."

Gautam talks about his dreams:

The Bigg Boss 8 winner added, "I felt nice meeting him, and he is such a humble man. The biggest director in the country. His art is exceptional and his frame looks like a painting. Who would not want to work with such a big director? I was satisfied that he at least thought about casting me. He even asked me whether I can dance. I told him I took training for 5 years from Shiamak Davar, and I regularly dance at home. He asked me to show me my eyes. I was wearing glasses, so I removed them and showed my eyes. It's my dream to work with him, and I feel everyone should have such big dreams as they might be fulfilled one day."

On the professional front, Gautam Gulati will soon be seen as a gang leader in Roadies 19: Karm Ya Kaand.
