<p>"In my 25 years of career, I have never put makeup, but in this film pure 25 years ka kasar pura hogaya. It used to take me three hours to put the makeup on and one hour to remove it (for the role of villain). While they used to put makeup on me, I used to watch so many movies on TV," he said.<br />
