Amit Gurjar - I Have Been Featured in a Few Songs and a Reality Show (Actor from India with 146k Followers)

I don't have any fav creator. I think everyone is giving their 100%, everyone has their own field of perfection. But I respect everyone's hard work and always try to learn whatever I can.

1. Tell us about your background and journey.

I am a Dyslexic kid and I have been treated differently from my siblings, from other kids in my school, neighborhood. I feel like everyone's journey is difficult, the important part is either you can sulk over it or you can use it as a stepping stone.

I feel like there is still so much to learn so I always push myself to learn as much as I can. It has always been my destination to prove myself to others, to myself since I have always felt that people used to look down on me and used to see me as a useless person, a baggage.


2. What made you start your Instagram page and what is it about? 

There was no special reason to start an Instagram account, I just jumped on the bandwagon since everyone was joining so I also joined. After joining I realized that Social Media could be the platform that I have been looking for. My install handle is all about self-love and fun entertainment. I also like to show my liking towards Bollywood through my account.

3. How and where do you find inspiration to churn out content for your Instagram?

I just want to spread fun, smile and laugh through my work. The things that are fun to me give me the inspiration to make content. And I also think that inspiration can be found in everything you just need that vision.


4. How can someone become a successful social media influencer?

In today's time, people just want to show their fake perfect side without any flaws, people just need to show their real self, their flaws. their imperfection and then let the viewers decide. But being real will definitely attract genuine love and fake criticism.


5. Who is your favorite creator and why?

I don't have any fav creator. I think everyone is giving their 100%, everyone has their own field of perfection. But I respect everyone's hard work and always try to learn whatever I can.


6. What is your idea of success or your mantra in life?

My mantra is Do whatever makes you happy. I never do anything for views,  I do it because it makes me happy and I think people and god blessed me with such good supporters who are like a family to me now.


7. What do you most enjoy about your work?

Everything because it is all my choice.

8. Was there any setback that you later realized was a stepping stone?

I used to think that if you are good, you will attract good but unfortunately I didn't realize it will also attract some negativity. Some people really used me and that put a toll on my mental health and I went into depression for 8-9 months, it also affected my work. But then it also proved to be a stepping stone since I now am more focused and committed to my work and now I also know what is harmful to my mental health.


9. Which is your favorite book and why? 

BHAGAVAD GEETA. It has all the answers to even the question you don't know you have. Even a lot of people from other cultures are now realizing it.
