From running mobile repair shop to doing a YRF movie: Ashutosh Ujjwal’s dream-like journey in films

Ashutosh Ujjwal, a first-time actor, jokingly claims that he could be the next famous person from Amethi, following in the footsteps of Rahul Gandhi and Smriti Irani. Ujjwal, who was born in Amethi, recently made his acting debut in the film “The Great Indian Family.” He had a smooth journey into showbiz, having already landed a job in the industry before moving to Mumbai. Ujjwal, who was previously a journalist, received a DM on Instagram from Yash Raj Films’ casting team, leading to his first acting opportunity.
