Like share & subscribe says better than us. Everyone can relate to this story. We look for it somewhere but there are many interesting stories that we see. It is very exciting to see the story that started as a travel vlogger take a turn as an action comedy.”

We knew we’ll be part of the industry in some form. I still don’t consider myself a hero. Neither of us thought we would need a backup. I completed my academics because mom wanted at least one-degree holder in the house (laughs). Both of us brothers were not good at anything else. We didn’t have a safety net and we gave it all when we entered the industry.”
