Amol Parashar and Akansh Gaur on Quitting Your Job For Digital Entertainment
Getting a break in the entertainment business is tough, especially if your family doesn't come from the same line of work. Your parents, your family, your friends, they're always concerned on how it's going to work out. As a story teller then you need to choose your projects very carefully because you're only as good as the last story you tell and as a story seller you need to be sure of selling the right project at the right price to the right person. Getting good at this business takes some doing and today we're talking to two young men who quit their jobs to pursue a career in entertainment and got really good at it.
One of them is an on-screen talent and Writer and the other is a branded Content Creator turned Executive Producer.
