Long before social media stars like Bhuvan Bam and Kusha Kapila broke the internet with their ‘multiple avatar’ videos, one man had already been there and done that. Gaurav Gera, the master of disguise, was one of the first few comedian-artistes who had dabbled in making short funny videos playing dress-up. For those who swear by social media would have watched his many Chutki, Shopkeeper, Aadu and Billi Maasi videos, which have Gaurav doing hilarious take offs, wearing hideous wigs and funny snapchat filters!
The actor, who’s done television, films and theatre, says, “I enjoy doing these videos on social media because the feedback is instant. I love the medium of the internet. I love to make these videos because I feel creatively satisfied.”
Gaurav not only acts in these videos, but also writes and shoots them.
