In response to showcasing Mumbai’s unique culture, Khalid shares his intent to explore the city’s renowned Bollywood culture and engage in local experiences. “I expect it to be very energetic.

Discussing challenges, Khalid recalls the complexity of producing a documentary in Sri Lanka, where time constraints and the desire to capture the nation’s essence presented hurdles. Overcoming challenges, he notes, requires finding motivation and a deeper purpose. In this case, the overwhelming support from the Sri Lankan people fueled the project, highlighting the power of connecting with a community’s aspirations.

Khalid’s content is intentionally crafted to resonate with a diverse audience. Drawing inspiration from global figures like Mr Bean, he focuses on universally relatable situations. “I like to make content that everyone can relate to,” he shares, emphasising the importance of creating shareable content that transcends cultural boundaries.

In the grand tapestry of content creation, Khalid strives to leave a lasting impact. “The message that I want to leave is that the world and people’s lives were better because of the work that we did,” he affirms.
