My only intention was to survive and earn for the next meal. It continued for 10 years. I did odd jobs and walked to my friend’s house for food. There were difficult times but we were happy even then. But ya, I did feel depressed at times because of lack of work. Depression and frustration start when you dream big.”

Because of which I used to stay out all day to see the world because I didn’t know how many days will I survive,” said Nawazuddin.
