He also talked about Hrithik's film Dhoom and stated that he loved the movie. When asked to dance to one of the actor's songs, Shubman replied, “I can’t dance as well as Hrithik but I had watched Koi Mil Gaya so I was a fan.” however, with a little nudging from the interviewer, Shubman got up to shake a leg.
