Gippy Grewal: My First Job Was As A Security Guard

MUMBAI-Indian Punjabi actor, singer and producer Gippy Grewal has opened up about the struggles he faced before finding success, revealing that his first job in Canada was as a security guard. Grewal is currently awaiting the release of his upcoming film ‘Carry On Jatta 4’.

Appearing on actor Shekhar Suman’s YouTube show ‘Shekhar Tonite’, Grewal recalled moving to Canada after marrying his longtime girlfriend and taking on multiple jobs as the couple worked to build a life from scratch.

“After my marriage, I moved to Canada. I started working there and took up several different jobs,” Grewal said.

Asked about the jobs he held, Grewal replied, “My first job, sir, was as a security guard. Later, I was doing three jobs at the same time. In the mornings, my wife and I used to deliver newspapers, after which she would leave for work.”

“She was a manager at Subway… and in the evenings, we had taken up a contract at a mall. There were just two of us — my wife and me.”

“Those two jobs, delivering newspapers in the morning and cleaning in the evening, when the two of us did them together, we would have so many conversations,” he said.

“We would discuss our plans — what we wanted to do, how we wanted to do it, and what steps we needed to take. We saved the money we earned, put it together, and that’s when I made my album.”

‘Carry On Jatta 4’ is scheduled to release on June 26. The first installment of the franchise was released in 2012, while the second and third films were released in 2018 and 2023, respectively. (IANS)
