F.A.L.T.U. is a success and things have pretty much fallen well in place for Jackky Bhagnani who was banking entirely on the film to launch his career in Bollywood. Now that the film is being talked about for it's theme and execution, Jackky can't help but get nostalgic about the past when people from different walks of life inspired him to pick up a film that revolved around youngsters who were academic failures but excelled in an alternate career path that they chose.

"I was in Miami once and was staying at a hotel where there was a sweeper employed. He was cleaning and wiping away everything that was waste. He looked very content doing his job. Then in the evening when I stepped out of the hotel, I saw the same man driving away in a Lambhirhgini. This is when I realised how proud he was about his job and doing it with so much conviction," remembers Jackky.

Jackky admits that he was pretty much moved with this emotional experiences around 'doing what you want to do'.

"Oh yes, it was a beautiful experience," he smiles, " Here in India, till the time you haven't done your Engineering, Medicine or Commerce, you are termed as a 'faltu'. There a sweeper too is going about enjoying his job as well as life."

Guess the adage of 'not really being 'faltu' worked here after all.
