People have faith in my versatility: Gaurav Gera
The multi-talented actor loves to wear different hats and doesn't work for money
Gaurav Gera has hosted live and TV shows, been a stand-up comedian, a radio jockey, featured in a live theatrical and has entertained small screen viewers with fiction shows.
He says he loves to wear different hats and enjoys the fact that people trust his versatility in his craft. "It's not money that I work for. I believe in being happy about my work. For three and a half years, I was in Jhumroo, a live play at Gurgaon's Kingdom of Dreams. Before that I was a radio jockey," Gaurav told IANS.
"I have been getting a variety of work somehow. Probably, people do have faith in me that I can be versatile, because I get offers for anchoring as well. There's acting, ads and fiction shows," he added.

Gaurav, who became a known face after having played the role of Nandu in Indian drama Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahin, said, “For internet, the video should be short enough to read as a joke, like the jokes on WhatsApp. You need something quick, because the viewer is losing out on data consumption."
