Inspirational stories of actors before they broke the glass ceiling are always good to hear because they motivate us all to do better in life. But sometimes, they are too shocking because you never saw them coming. Just like the one we are discussing today. Aasif Khan, an actor who has appeared in multiple Hindi films and shows, found overnight fame with a cameo in the Amazon Prime Video original series made by TVF, Panchayat. The actor was part of season 1, where he played the groom, for those who remember. But before that moment changed everything for him in the business, he had seen some pretty tough days, which included washing dishes at Kareena Kapoor Khan and Saif Ali Khan’s wedding reception.

Yes, you read that right. As per Aasif’s latest confession, he talked about coming to Mumbai to become an actor. Khan lost his father in 2010 and did small jobs to earn a livelihood before he convinced his mother that he wanted to pursue acting. The actor then had to do a lot of odd jobs to sustain himself in Mumbai before he found acting gigs. He recalled how he took up a job as a waiter and ended up at a high-profile wedding reception.
Talking about working at Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor’s wedding reception in October 2012, Aasif Khan said, “To sustain myself, I started working as a waiter at a hotel. After a few months, when I was working in the kitchen department, we had a party, which was Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor’s reception.”
Sometime later, Aasif Khan left that job and started working at a mall. Later, he moved to Jaipur, where he joined a theatre group before appearing in films like Agneepath starring Hrithik Roshan and Ready with Salman Khan. He was also seen in Akshay Kumar’s Toilet: Ek Prem Katha. He finally got a full-fledged role in Arjun Kapoor starrer India’s Most Wanted. He then moved to streaming, where he made his debut with Mirzapur and later appeared in Panchayat.
Aasif Khan was last seen in Panchayat Season 3, where he reprised his recurring character. He will now be seen in Section 108, Kakuda, Noorani Chehra, Ishq Chakallas, and The Virgin Tree. The actor certainly has set a shining example and will inspire many who aspire to make it big in the business.
