MUMBAI: TikTok star Awez Darbar recently spoke to a media portal about the quarantine period, bringing back Dance with Awez, and more.

On the quarantine period, he said, 'Apart from making videos, I am just watching Netflix. That’s because we create stuff, we need inspiration. When I see something on Netflix, the way they shoot and direct is mind blowing. Few of the series are too good, so I am seeing them and getting inspired.'

On his passion for dancing, he quipped, 'I started off with music. My dad wanted me to become a music director. I wanted to tell him that I am not that interested in music and I’m more into dance. I used to wake up at 6 in the morning and play piano because of my dad’s fear. I learnt piano and drum for a year and gave the trainee exam and scored 87-90 percent. I told him that even though he is happy with this, I feel dead inside. I am not able to bring up my creativity because of this. I am not made for this, I am interested in something else. I told him that I gave you one year, now even he should give me sometime, let me do something but if it doesn't happen then I’ll come back to music. So I left my house. I joined Shaimak as an instructor. After gaining a lot of experience, I decided to go solo and started to make my dance videos. I started by posting on Facebook but there were many issues there, so I came to Instagram, and then I moved to YouTube.'

On bringing back Dance with Awez, he shared, 'I started off musically with Dance with Awez which got very famous. People used to do a duet with me, like they used to copy the hand gestures that I used to do and I am starting all of this again. I want to relive the old memories. I am gonna get the stars on my live. I’ll make them do Dance with Awez. I’ll mostly start with Hardy Sandhu and then get Jannat Zubair. I am going to do it with all the people I know and then make them dance live, so Dance with Awez is going to be a live thing on Instagram.'

On his marriage plans, he mentioned, 'Marriage is a big responsibility. You need to understand that if you have not reached a certain goal in your career and if you get married, then your responsibilities get divided. Because of that, your mind is not at peace and things will fall apart.'

Stay tuned for more updates.
