The day I got injured, I was really stressed. When I was going to the hospital, I didn't even know if I would survive in the game. I think the injury did make me physically weak, but it somehow made me stronger mentally. I became more focused and also got this burning desire to win.
As the show is Revolution, what change would he want to bring in society?
Hamid said,
I would really support the cause of equality. I have been involved in social work and want to continue with it. I remember a guard near my house, who put his sons in a private school while he sent his daughter to a local one. I started paying for her school fees to have an equal opportunity in life like her brothers. I think such small steps can help us make a difference.

I have always wanted to be an actor, and I would like to take up the craft. I have been approached for a few things.
