He had gone to meet Gulzar with a copy of Devdas then and had asked the poet to write a script for it. Mehra expressed that, "He didn't know me and I just walked up to him, kept the book on his table and said, 'I want you to write this film for me.'" He also said that , "now 27 years later, he is actually writing a film for me! It's a dream come true for me."
