Arun Kushwah: Funny how people used to troll me first and now they ask for selfies

Actor Arun Kushwah has appeared in Bollywood projects like Luka Chuppi, Bhootpurva, and Chopsticks among others. His journey has been a roller coaster ride from Gwalior to Mumbai. In a recent interview with us, he spoke about his journey and more. 

How did this idea of the name "Chote Miyan" come?

Initially, I named the youtube channel Chota Recharge but later, I changed it to Chote Miyan. I wanted to keep a name that reflects my personality. Although I love when people call me by my original name “Arun Kushwah”  

Now that you've become a sensational internet star. Most of your videos are viral. How do you feel?

It is an amazing experience. But I wonder how these people first used to troll me and now they just ask for selfies. 

How do you handle all the fame?

I have faced so much negativity in life that this fame "Mujhe Taad ke Jhaad par Chadne hi Nahi Deta." (laughs)

Any fan incident you would like to share?

Once I was sitting at a restaurant, 4-5 boys were staring at me and were checking their phones constantly. I understood that they recognized me and I thought they would come for a selfie but after some time they left. When I asked the waiter for the bill, he told me that it has been paid by that group of 4-5 boys and they have left a note stating that  “Sir we love you, ye humari taraf se”.

Are you happy with the way your career graph is shaping up?

Absolutely yes, I can’t express it in words. It feels good to have things shaping up in the best way and I am in a happy space now. But yes, more things to achieve.

Well, he truly is quite the star!
