A : I have been doing few of the workshops my self regarding Live Streaming. I have done a workshop in a college in Mumbai and one in Mumbai's Circle gaming cafe and in Pune's Havok Nation Gaming Cafe. I'm hoping to do more of this kind of workshop in different cities in the future.
Q : Does your family support your decision to be a full day streamer?
A : At the starting days of my streaming career I didn't tell my parents about what exactly I was doing in my room, as the concept of live streaming culture is new in our country it's very difficult to explain the concept of a live streaming or having a YouTube channel.
As my channel grew and I got backed up by brands like NVIDIA, LG, HyperX, ZOTAC, ONLY then I thought of going full-time time streamer in India and my parents understood my decision and are now supporting me for my decision.
