I did everything possible which could feed me, so I started going to newspaper distribution at the age of 12 and ended up in the fashion industry now. I was working as an office boy and tried to apply for a job at a department store but was rejected as I was underage. After some time, I managed to secure a job at a store at Mantri Square mall where I befriended the mall manager who introduced me to the events company which handled all events at the mall. As luck had it, I managed to get them to hire me and that job went on to become my training ground for the production house I eventually went on to establish. After having worked for four years at the event management company, I was itching to branch out on my own and with my family’s support and belief in my capabilities, I took the plunge and started my own production house “Sid Productions”.
