In a lighthearted exchange captured in a viral video, veteran actor Kanwarjit Paintal, known for his extensive work in Indian cinema, declared that he doesn't see himself as an actor because he lacks Instagram followers. This humorous statement was made during a spontaneous moment with fellow actor Manmeet Singh on the set of the upcoming film 'Hukus Bukus'. With a career that spans over 50 years and includes more than 350 films, Paintal has made a significant mark in the industry, particularly remembered for his roles in classics like 'Bawarchi' and 'Dostana', as well as his recent appearance in the popular television series 'Anupamaa'. His comments resonate with the current trend where social media presence often influences perceptions of celebrity status, leaving Singh visibly puzzled about this modern definition of acting. Paintal's career began in the 1970s, and he has been a beloved figure in both films and television, showcasing his talent in iconic roles such as Shikhandi and Sudama in the epic series 'Mahabharat'.
