Q. Any message you like to convey to our audience and your fans?

Life is so Unpredictable. Jaise aap Chahte ho waisa ni hota kabhi. Like last year the way I was growing on YouTube, I calculated that till the end of 2018 I will b hitting 50k Subs.
But then Due to some personal Problems, I did not Upload videos for 50 days and all my growth was Just Stuck. And now I am currently at 28k+ Subscribers. So jaisa Socha waisa ni hua.
Agar khud ka Kuch krna hai to Boss risk to Lena pdega. Agar ap Sochoge ki Job bhi krlengy aur sath me apna Doosra kaam bhi hojaega.
