In the CV, Kher went beyond listing his filmography, presenting himself as more than just an actor. He also candidly spoke about his early struggles, noting, "Landed in Mumbai with just 37 in my pocket and a head full of dreams. Juggled small roles while learning the art of patience and perseverance."

Having taken on a variety of roles, the actor discussed his experiences from comic relief to dramatic characters, emphasizing the lessons learned about empathy, humor, and the diversity of human experiences. He expressed a desire to continue telling stories and taking on new roles while remaining open to whatever adventures lie ahead.

In the skills section of his CV, he listed adaptability, humor and positivity, public speaking, and resilience.
