Josh
creator
Prawin
from
Hyderabad
doesn’t
have
many
pleasant
childhood
memories.
His
father
abandoned
his
family
and
left
the
village,
leaving
behind
him,
his
brother
and
mother
without
any
support.
Prawin
did
all
kinds
of
jobs
like
delivering
newspapers,
selling
water
packets,
etc.
to
make
ends
meet.
Somehow
he
finished
his
education
and
took
his
hobby
of
dancing
a
level
up
by
performing
on
stage.
However,
it
didn’t
pay
much
so
he
had
to
juggle
between
stage
performances
and
part-time
jobs
like
in
oil
companies
and
taking
dance
classes
in
different
dance
studios.
But
Prawin’s
family
was
unaware
of
his
dual
life.
Things
were
hard
at
home,
but
one
fine
day
he
got
a
call
from
choreographer
Bhushan
Master’s
assistant
because
of
one
of
his
stage
performances.
Prawin
was
offered
a
chance
in
Dhee
show.
Sharing
what
motivated
him
to
continue
dancing
even
during
his
struggles,
he
recalled
an
incident.
One
of
the
first
times
Prawin
got
to
dance
in
front
of
a
big
personality
was
for
a
dance
competition,
which
had
Tollywood
actor
Chiranjeevi
as
chief
guest.
Though
he
was
nervous,
he
worked
hard
and
came
first
among
200
participants.
Chiranjeevi
personally
gave
him
the
award
and
his
words
stayed
with
Prawin
since
then.
He
shared
that
the
actor
said
that
his
dance
timing
and
expressions
are
superb.
He
also
asked
him
to
keep
working
hard
to
become
successful
one
day.
As
camera
phones
were
not
a
thing
back
then,
his
family
saw
about
the
competition
on
tv
and
were
shocked
as
they
had
no
idea
how
well
Prawin
can
dance.
They
then
supported
him
and
asked
him
to
continue
dancing
but
also
support
the
family
financially.
So
he
started
working
as
a
dancer
and
assistant
in
Dhee
show.
and
did
some
hit
songs.
He
earned
fame
and
a
good
name
for
himself
and
has
many
proud
moments,
but
he
always
remembers
that
one
thing
Chiranjeevi
said.
That’s
how
dance
became
Prawin’s
full-time
career
and
he
won
more
than
151+
dance
competitions.
Sharing
how
his
friends
Ravi
and
Kranthi
played
the
main
role
in
his
dance
career,
he
said
that
they
stood
by
him
in
every
hardship
that
he
faced.
No
matter
what
he
did,
they
supported
him.
After
getting
opportunities
as
an
assistant
and
choreographer
for
films,
everyone
started
admiring
him
and
that’s
how
he
started
his
own
dance
studio.
He
says
he
feels
he
has
reached
the
place
he
wanted,
but
thought
he
should
become
a
choreographer.
“I
am
an
inspiration
to
many
people,
many
people
listen
to
me
and
learn
from
me”,
he
says
as
he
believes
because
he
has
worked
with
big
masters,
he
should
continue
his
journey
and
spread
his
knowledge
and
entertain
people.
That’s
when
Josh
entered
his
life.
Josh
likes
to
encourage
talent,
be
it
new
or
experienced.
It
gives
artists
a
platform
to
not
only
showcase
their
talents
but
also
connect
with
their
viewers.
Prawin’s
Josh
journey
started
in
July
last
year.
With
his
perfect
dance
moves,
he
gained
1.4
Million
fans
on
Josh.
The
best
desi
app
also
showered
him
with
gifts.
