Paresh Ganatra said he insisted on doing 'Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story' as he had lost all his money in the Harshad Mehta scam in 1992. "I had ₹75,000 in savings...I lost it all," he said. "I insisted...I'd play this role despite Hansal Mehta saying it was a small role," said Paresh, who played a character named Maheshwari.
