We were strictly instructed to arrive on time at 3 PM, and we all complied. However, Feroze Khan showed up two and a half hours late. By now, all mainstream media representatives have already left. You all become stars not just by divine favor but also due to the support of fans and the media.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1399\" data-end=\"1535\">In response, Feroze Khan sarcastically interjected,<br data-start=\"1450\" data-end=\"1453\" \/><em data-start=\"1453\" data-end=\"1533\">&#8220;Does media make stars?
