BHOPAL: It seems 'Dancing Uncle' is now feeling the pinch of media glare. The overnight stardom that he has achieved for Govinda-style dance through the social media has robbed him of peace of mind and is finding little time to decide on the offers from Bollywood and boob tube.
Sanjeev Srivastava said, "After my video went viral, my phone has not stopped ringing even for a minute.
It last one week, I have received more than 1,000 phone calls. Now, I have given my mobile phone to my brother so that he can pick up calls and connect me to others. Due to the sudden fame, I have got many offers from B-town, including one from
Sunil Shetty, and I want to study them, but due to busy schedule I am unable to give a thought to them."
"Every day, most of my time is exhausted by interviews with media, including print, radio and television. During rest of the time, either I have to go somewhere to meet people or there are people who are already waiting at my residence for me," said Sanjeev.
"I am happy with the fame and I can't express it in words, as I have got an opportunity to meet B-town stars as well as political leaders, including CM
Shivraj Singh Chouhan. I am enjoying the celebrity life, " he said.
Talking about his engagements, he said, "Due to lack of time, I am unable to study the offers I have got. Once I get free from media glare and interviews, I would contact them and check the offers. If I find them really good, I would surely go for it. Even S unil Shetty has told me that he has planned something big for me and will inform me about it in a week."
His brother Deepak Srivastava said, "My brother has become a star overnight. His schedule has become so busy that he is even unable to give proper time to his family. When he wakes up in the morning, I brief him about his appointments of the day, and someday we even have to travel early morning to other city, or have to meet a media person for interview. He doesn't want to refuse anyone."
