Zayed Khan plays a role of the manifestation of love in 'Shabd'. It's his dream to act with Ash, and when it happens he is just speechless. He says, "Aishwarya is truly fantastic. I made a wish to work with her, and God made it come true to me. After knowing her, I realized what a wonderful person she actually is, and I'm glad I was that side of her." He is not too gentlemanly with co-stars like Esha Deol and Amrita Rao, as they are his friends. But with Ash he is a thorough gentleman.
