Ex : How did your content creation journey kick start?
It was in 2013. I was writing codes for my college. So I thought, why not just make videos of those codes, as they were not available anywhere. I thought making a video of them would be of a bit of help. So that is how I started making videos.
Ex : What is your most viral reel/short? How did the idea come, and how long did it take to shoot?
My most viral short is the one I made with my manager, Anushka. It was a parody of all the TikTok videos.
Ex : Any 4 creators you want to collaborate with in the future.
I would love to collaborate with Ashish Chanchlani and Bhuvan Bam. Internationally, I would love to collaborate with the Sidemen KSI and LazarBeam.
Ex : What piece of tech is your favourite.
I think my favourite piece of tech is my PC and mic.
Ex : Assuming Instagram is shutting down in 24 hours, what will you do?
I wouldn’t be worried, as most of my Instagram followers are YouTube subscribers. I love Instagram, but still, I’ll not be very concerned.
Ex : Do you have an industry mentor?
I don’t have any, but I have friends who work in this field, and I talk to them for advice. Besides them, my manager, Ankit, is also very helpful; he has a lot of industry experience.
Ex : Tell us about a project that you are the most proud of.
I love all the videos from the series of Chaggan Vlogger and Bhool Bhulaiya that I have made. I’ve also done a few sketches for Hotstar that I’m proud of.
Ex : Give us one or more hashtags describing you
#nohashtag #lassan
Ex : Can you describe a BTS / blooper that happened during a shoot but didn’t make it into the final content piece?
Yeah. So, the videos that we made with the DJ Mrunal, Dhinchak Pooja and Puneet Superstar I wanted to put in the video, but we couldn’t because of possible chances of controversy.
Ex : What’s the first-ever trend that you hopped on?
Dhinchak Pooja was trending at the time when I started making videos, and it was the first trend I hopped in.
Ex : What will the creator landscape look like in 10 years from now?
In the next few years, we’ll have many creators, and the audience will be shared, and as a result, they’ll be the king.
Ex : What are the platforms you are active on – how do you decide what goes where?
YouTube, Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat. I don’t have any specific preference, but I do use Instagram for more personal stuff.
Ex : What’s the next big thing in the pipeline for you?
I am planning a big show, and there’ll probably be a web series.
Ex : What is your dream project?
I do not have any dream project as of now, but the project I talked about earlier is going to be huge, and I’m very excited about it.
Ex : Advice you would like to give to budding creators.
Try to make something unique, as everybody is making content. Don’t worry about the view count; keep making content because you only need one viral video.
