CarryMinati bags a role in Ajay Devgn’s MayDay

YouTuber Ajey Nagar better known as CarryMinati will make his Bollywood debut with a role in the Amitabh Bachchan-Ajay Devgn-starrer, MayDay. He will play a social media sensation in the film.

"I am absolutely thrilled and honoured to be aligning creative forces with such reputed personalities from the film fraternity. I'm eagerly looking forward to being a part of this brand-new adventure and learning a thing or two about acting while I'm at it," CarryMinati said.

"In the past, I've got offered film roles but I agreed to be a part of this project because I had the opportunity to play myself and bring my alias, CarryMinati alive on the 70 mm screen. I remember enacting these skits as a child and my parents always thought I'd grow up to be an actor. You see acting is something that comes to me naturally, just like music, so it's no rocket science for me really," he added.

MayDay is directed by Ajay, who essays the lead role of a pilot. The film also stars Rakul Preet Singh, Angira Dhar, and Aakanksha Singh. The movie went on the floors earlier this month. CarryMinati will join the cast and crew later next week.

MayDay is slated for release on April 29, 2022.
