I know what a fabulous actor she is and more than that she's a great friend and it would be great fun to have her along for this journey. We started our journey to films and television together with 'Karamveer' where we learned a lot and also had great fun. We still look at us in that movie and share a laugh and rejoice to those days.

The story is a satirical comedy taking digs at fake Godmen's and people provoking thoughts out of society in the name of God.  "The story and concept of the play are wonderful and the kind of atmosphere is created to give the audience the best of experience we recommend them to not think of this as a stage play but an actual court hearing where the convicted defends himself and the state argues. The aim of this act is to enlighten the audience and make them aware of such unpleasant happenings around them." said Imran Khan about 'Murder of God'. "I'm really excited to be a part of this stage-play 'Murder of God' and have great hopes and expectations from myself that I'd want to able to deliver through the director's vision. Theatre is quite different from TV soaps or films or web series and my wanting to challenge myself for something different again and again has brought me here. The concept of the play was something new and fresh and also gave out an important message in the end which is necessary for the society nowadays," signs off the 'Divya Drishti' actress.
