He said that they had a friend circle where they would keep informing each other where the auditions were happening.
The actor stated, “Hum kahin bhi ghus jaate the. Jahan dekha 'auditions open, male 22-25’, ghus gaye. Ek baar hum subah se nikle huye the. Humne kahan yaar aaj ek toh audition dekar jayenge. Phir dekha kisi Bhojpuri film ka audition chal raha hai. (We used to just enter every place where auditions were taking place. Wherever we would see ‘auditions open, male 22-25’, we used to barge in. Once we were out since the morning and we had decided to give at least one audition before going back home. We saw auditions happening for a Bhojpuri film).”
“Humne darwaza khola pucha fit-not fit. Unhone bola teenon fit ho aajao. Humne audition diya hai, wahi par reject huye hain aur nikal gaye (We opened the door and asked fit-not fit. They said all three of you are fit and invited us. We gave the audition, got rejected and were thrown out from there),” he continued.
