Career

In 1999 Jay has operated six times on his both legs, It was obviously very painful for a just 6 years old kid, to smooth his pain and distract his attention, his parents gave him simple mimicry cassette in Gujarati, and then the effect was instant. When the family members came to see Jay, he spoke whole cassette without missing any single word and with the word "This is side A, now listen side B"! Than Mr. and Mrs. Chhaniyara realized that they have amazing kid with extra ordinary grasping power.
These cassettes became the launching pad and a source of inspiration for the child, who now began to create his own jokes and had cultivated a small audience too. Encouraged y his enthusiasm and high spirits, his parents promoted him for public performance during the popular Gujarati festival of Navratra. The audiences were enthralled and there was a standing ovation for him. And that time Jay has found his destiny and there was no looking back.
