Honestly being one of the lead characters, I was promised I, never got a chance to showcase my performance and skills as an actor. I never got to work for more than 2-3 days a month. Never got any sort of promotions nor was I invited for any reality shows. I felt like an outsider. This took a toll on me financially and I did not see any sort of progress or growth career-wise. With that being said, I did get to work with some really amazing artists and the production really did take good care of me. I would like to thank the production & wish the team the best of luck for their future episodes. What next? Two major project announcements coming up." He said.
