2. When did you first decide that you wanted to create content and how did you start?

During my SE I use watch YouTube a lot, and having a dance background I opened a channel on dance with my school friend prasad parab ,that channel is mad_over_dance, after that prasad became so busy in his dance career, so we didn't continued that channel further.
