Started with humble beginnings and has roduced three films with me in them… This one has Jaya too. But despite that has reported each day as my make up man even in the middle of his production activities… Quite something!! Such individuals and the Bhojpuri films,that have limited releases only in the state of Bihar,need all the encouragement and so they do… I work for him and never charge,its not a monetary matter for me… His contribution is greater than my fee,” he wrote on his blog.
