Abhay Verma reflects on his life before stardom: 'I had only INR1200 in my account'

  • Abhay Verma shared insights on his life before his film Munjya.
  • He said that it feels like a new life when the audience accepts you.
  • He revealed a challenging moment just days before Munjya’s release.
Abhay Verma’s six-year journey in the industry finally gained momentum with the success of Munjya. The actor compared his new life filled with stardom to the life when no one knew him.

Reflecting on the transformative year, the actor shared, “The year might be ending, but a lot of good beginnings have happened. It feels like a new life when you finally feel accepted by the audience. Suddenly your signature becomes your autograph, your admirers become your fans.”

Abhay, who has transitioned from commercials to becoming a brand ambassador, described the year as “dreamy.” He noted, “Within the industry, Abhay Verma might not have had that value which now Abhay Verma the artiste has. The fact that I don't need to introduce myself now is just a great feeling.”

The actor revealed a challenging moment just days before Munjya’s release. “Three days before release, I had only ₹1200 in my account. I called my best friend back home, wondering how I’d manage. But everything panned out. I always knew Munjya was going to shift gears for me, be it the second gear or reverse.”

Abhay also shared advice from filmmaker Imtiaz Ali: “Imtiaz sir said... just take that acceptance, but don’t let it go over your head.”

Looking ahead, he expressed hope to work with his idol, Shah Rukh Khan: “Everything I do is influenced by him... my career is an ode to him.”
