Priyanshu who made his web show Bang Baaja Baaraat in 2015, opposite Mirzapur co-actor Ali Fazal, says that nobody saw the web trend coming back then.

According to him, people spend money to watch a film in the theatres whereas a web show needs to keep the interest level high and can be watched from the comfort of one’s home. 

The actor, who has two films in his kitty including Rashmi Rocket and Pippa, recently got married to his long-time girlfriend Vandana Joshi. The pre-wedding festivities began in Dehradun in November.
