"Oh, definitely you have! I had the incredible opportunity to play Jr. Krrish and work alongside a super talented cast in a film that was truly a joy to be part of. My journey from being a child actor to becoming an eye surgeon has been nothing short of amazing. The transition has been filled with wonderful experiences and exceptional learnings, shaping who I am today," an excerpt from his post read.
