Nagar said he always had the desire to act. “I remember enacting these skits as a child and my parents always thought I’d
grow up to be an actor. Acting is something that comes naturally to me just
like music so it’s no rocket science for me really,” he said in an interaction with the media. 

He assured his YouTube fans that
his entry into Bollywood does not imply an exit from YouTube. “I’m just
exploring and experimenting within the creative gamut, but content creation
will always be my passion and true calling,” he said.

The shooting for ‘Mayday’ began
on December 11 and is set to hit the theatres on April 29, 2022.
