Punit Pathak: I was not born with a silver spoon
Punit J Pathak, actor and choreographer, tells us he was not born with a silver spoon and had to struggle really hard to come till here.
He says, "I used to travel in bus and train and dancing was not allowed in school. It is only when I reached college that I started taking part in college fests. During that time, Terence sir (Lewis) was looking for young dancers and out of the 89 participants he auditioned, I was taken the last minute to dance with him. I worked with Terence sir for four years and never thought that I would become a choreographer, because at the back of my mind I always wanted to try films. It is only that by chance and opportunities, I am now an actor and dancer."
