It's said that success doesn't come easy. The path to stardom goes through the alleys of struggles, hard work, and persistence.
Today we will discuss a singer who went on to become one of the biggest stars of Punjabi cinema.
Not only as an actor, but he even showcased his talent as a filmmaker, and now he's also a big-shot producer and director. Yes, he's none other than Gippy Grewal.
Gippy's journey from Ludiaana to Canada
Born as Rupinder Singh Grewal, Gippy did Hotel Management in Panchkula and got his first job at a hotel in Delhi. Gippy used to earn Rs 2800 monthly, and he wanted to earn better. After working in a hotel, Gippy did 2-3 albums, but it didn't work in his favour. Then he got married to Ravneet Kaur and moved to Canada for better income.
Gippy's struggle in Canada
Gippy and his wife Ravneet had struggled a lot during their initial years in Canada. While speaking to Film Companion, Gippy recalled their humble beginning and said, "I went and got the job of a security guard, threw newspapers in the morning, then we used to clean public toilets in the mall and mob the floor. My wife used to clean those trays in the food court. But now after hearing this, we feel like, these are hard jobs, but people do them regularly. Our Punjabi brothers and sisters do this. The whole world does it, I also did it and I liked it very much.”
Gippy found success with...
Gippy made his film debut in 2010 with Mel Karade Rabba, followed by superhit Jinhe Mera Dil Luteya. Gippy gained stardom with Carry On Jatta, Singh vs Kaur, Jatt James Bond, and Double Di Trouble.
