I envy my co-stars, says Ayub Khan

Mumbai: Social media has become extremely popular. It has given a platform for aspiring artists to display their talent and gives actors the opportunity to connect with their fans on a daily basis.

It has opened doors for fans to become a part of their favourite stars’ life. Recently popular actor Ayub Khan who is currently seen in Dangal TV’s Ranju Ki Betiyaan mentions social media has become an industry by itself with influencers creating huge economical possibilities on social platforms.

Sharing more about this, Ayub says, “Social media has given a platform to those, who sometimes are too far down the line in being recognised for their talent. For the artist, there is a very relevant saying “jo dikhta hai, wohi biktha hain” (only if you are visible, will you be saleable). Gone are the days where one had to wait for getting a chance to be seen on the silver screen or the idiot box! Many actors have become hugely successful just by them creating their content on social media.”

Talking about his co-actor using social media to engage with the audience, he says, “I as an actor find it commendable when my co-actor (Deepshika Nagpal) diligently makes time to make content for her platforms. Usually, our sets are brimming with  her creativity and ideas, the moment the directors call out ‘CUT’ and lighting begins, which gives her enough time for her creative juices to begin flowing, for her next post on social media.”

Ayub also adds, ”I am envious of many of the artist’s enthusiasm and energy who I see regularly around me, creating their content, to keep the millions of fans following them, engaged with their content. But not envious enough to push myself to do the same (unfortunately)”

We are sure his fans are eager to see him joining social media platforms.
