Excerpts -
What are the brands you are associated with?
I have collaborated with 70 brands including brands like - Spyker, Hike, Ipl, Oppo, Tinder and many more.
In India there are many trolls on tiktok, there are so many you have called you gay or homosexual, how do u deal with it?
Some hate the platform “tiktok” because it is the most trending thing these days, when they can’t reach your level, they try to spread hatred and pull you down, that’s the reason, they are still in a pit. And if we talk about trolls on me, I feel, they just want attention and are jealous of the fact that others love me. Moreover, if they watch everything I do, they are not haters they are my fans!
What are your future plans? Are you planning to try your luck in Bollywood?
Yes, big projects are in the pipeline, like I said, I cannot reveal them right now. Future plans are not only limited to Bollywood, I want reach to the Hollywood level.
How do you make money by posting these weird videos on the app?
There are many ways of earning. I do it by collaborating with brands, events, shows and besides all of that I also have my own printing and packaging business.
Do you have any fans?
I don’t like calling them fans, I love using the word ‘fam’ which means family and every member of my family is special to me and every time I meet them, they give me special moments
What is future of tiktok in India?
Right now, the mobile app is on its peak, but the sad part is, it’s open to everyone, so everyday there are some useless and meaningless viral videos coming up on the ‘foryoupage’, the ‘content’ which brought TikTok in the limelight is not appreciated these days. I am talking about the transitions etc. I feel everyone should move on to better things with time, but for now TikTok is the most loved social media platform and I am proud to be a representative of this app in India
