Tell us something about yourself?
I’m single, so, hello ladies! I’m really passionate about making videos. I enjoy the process of writing, directing, acting, editing and everything related to it. Basically my life revolves around creating cool content on YouTube. I spend most of my time creating videos and coming up with funny ideas for my channel Hyderabad Diaries.
How did you come up with the concept of Hyderabad Diaries?
I always wanted to do something that clearly brought out my creative side as well as my personality. As I spent a lot of my time surfing through the Internet, I definitely was inspired by a lot of YouTubers to start my own channel. Wanting to create something very unique, I realised that there weren’t any YouTube channels
that made videos with Hyderabadi Slang. What other motivation could I need? It seemed like the
perfect idea to me. So, I started it.
What is the proudest moment in your career?
My proudest moment was when I made my first movie. When I first started my channel, I never thought that I’d reach a point where I would confidently make a movie of my own. But it happened and happened so well that the movie was a huge hit. At this point, I am done shooting for another movie which is going to hit the theatres very soon.
What do you do in your free time when you’re not working?
The usual guy stuff. I play video games, listen to music, order food, disappoint my parents, switch between social media apps scrolling through my feed for hours and order more food. I also love
reading the comments on my pictures from all my fans. It brings me immense pleasure to receive so much love from people who I don’t even know personally. It really boosts my self esteem and encourages me to make more videos.
Where do you see yourself in the next 5 years?
“Celebrating the 5 year anniversary of you asking me this question” - Mitch Hedberg.
What does it take to be successful in the field you excel in?
It definitely takes a lot of passion because you cannot afford to get bored of the stuff you do. If you are not passionate about what you do, then you cannot deliver your 100% to the audience. It also takes a lot of consistency as you cannot be inconsistent when people are waiting for your content. In fact, there’s no place for inconsistency in any field and in any walk of life. Rapid Fire
Three things you never leave home without?
My phone, wallet and car keys.

Are you a morning person or a night person?
Morning person. My mind is very fresh in the mornings.
Favourite movie quote?
Since I’m named after the king of Bollywood, it has to be “Senorita, aise bade bade deshon mein choti choti baatein hoti rehti hai. ”
Your biggest addiction?
Movies- every language, every genre.
What stores do you shop at most?
