Shiv Thakare on facing financial crisis
Shiv Thakare said, "We come from a middle-class family, where you have to adjust and live life. My mother has been the force behind me and my success. She always made us dream big and made sure we worked hard to achieve the same and not be scared of failure. I used to sell milk packets and newspapers to earn some extra money."
He added, "Even when I used to visit Mumbai for auditions, I used to only bring Rs 3000 with me, out of which most of my money used to be spent on travel expenses. In those days, I always wanted to take formal training in Dance but could not afford it.”
