‘Taarak Mehta…’ actor hopes to help newcomers with his app

Actor Gurucharan Singh, known for playing Roshan Sodhi in the show “Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah”, says he has come out with a mobile application to help newcomers in showbiz.

“I never had to struggle to get my first work. Because my sister and her husband used to stay here (Mumbai) and I knew I have a place to stay and that’s the biggest concern for any newcomer in this city,” Gurucharan said in a statement.

“Apart from that the biggest concern is how to showcase the talent of an artist. I came up with an app for this reason — a platform where someone can showcase their talent, whether it is dance skills, singing talent or acting potential,” he added.

Gurucharan came out with GCS Star App earlier this week.

He says there will be a “panel of distinguished people” judging the talent being showcased on the app.

“We will also try to provide them work. I hope and I wish that this app will open a new arena for new talent in the industry and they don’t have to struggle for their first break.”
