Career
Fortunately, experienced only a short time of struggle. It took me only two years to get into film. Graduated from college and was aged 23 when I received my first break. There are many years of struggle before getting a break. However, I have had many rejections. They tried to audition for TV and film roles but were rejected.
The funny thing is, I received an opportunity to break into the industry unusually. I ran into Pahlaj Nihalani inside the toilet of an elite hotel! We talked and he asked me about what I do. I explained my situation to him, and he asked me to go to his office. That’s how I got the first-time break!”
