### My story

Main hoon Mahipal, bas ek artist jo apne kaam se pyaar karta hai. Sabse pehle toh apne kaam se mohabbat karo, warna kuch maza nahi. Art hi mera escape hai - dukh, dard, peeda sab issi mein dissolve ho jaate hain. Kabhi kabhi lagta hai, social media pe 48 ghante ki mehnat bhi zero views milti hai, par kya karein, yeh hi toh zinda rakhta hai. Bas, main apna kaam karta hoon - chahe wo Mahadev ka sketch ho, ya koi papa-beti ka pyaar. Dekho, pasand aaye toh batao.
