Q. How has your journey been so far?

A. I have had a very fulfilling journey. I first started off as an artist in Gujarati films and gradually moved to Bhojpuri cinema. I have successfully completed 7 long years here and feel blessed. My fans have loved me immensely and I am thankful for their appreciation. Overall, I have worked with all the A-listers in my industry and am getting some good offers too. Having worked in 30 odd films till now, I think the journey has been fulfilling.

Q. Who is your favourite co-star?

A. I have a good rapport with all the stars like power star Pawan Singh or superstar Khesari Lal Yadav. Both are my favourites. With Pawan Singh, my on-screen pairing is liked by the audiences and he is a very sweet person. And with Khesari, our dancing is a big hit amongst viewers—they really like it. Our on-screen chemistry is loved by the audiences—so, both of these are my favourites.

Q. What are your upcoming projects?

A. I have a film 'Sangharsh' lined-up for release on August 24, 2018, with Khesari Lal Yadav. Besides I have 'Naag Dev' and another film with Pawan Singh titled 'Maine Unko Sajan Chun Liya'. I am looking forward to the releases and super excited about it.

Q. How comfortable are you with item numbers?

A. I love dancing and the public likes it. My fans have always appreciated my dancing skills and I enjoy it.

Q. Did you ever think of gradually moving to Bollywood. Any offers so far?

A. I have been busy with work in Bhojpuri films. I did get offers in the past but couldn't take them up as dates were clashing with films here. I got an offer to star opposite Krushna Abhishek in 'Teri Bhabhi Hai Pagle' but unfortunately could not do it. If things work out, will surely work on a Bollywood project next.
