I landed in the ‘city of dreams’, Mumbai on the 3rd June, 1981 to try my luck in Indian Cinema.
This city has been extremely kind to me.
From a nobody it allowed me to become somebody.
Last week, I went to the place I first lived in.
I go their often.
I shared my small room with four other people! But my address was literally an eye opener and an indicator of what was going to follow.
” The only thing required out of me was hard work.
Thank you 2/15, Kherwadi for giving me a roof! You will always remain my most special and iconic address,” he captioned the video.
Later in the day, the veteran actor posted a video of his mother reacting to him completed 40 years in Mumbai.

But goes to all other topics.
We discuss whether we felt poor or not.
She calls our Father chor and then laughs.
Then goes into stories of small thefts by my brother too.
She is a चलता फिरता एंटरटेनमेंट चैनल। Touch wood!! God give her long and healthy life.
She is hilarious and always forgets that there is a camera recording her conversations.
