Aman Verma, a popular television actor, has taken an unexpected turn in his career, transitioning from acting to performing magic. He light-heartedly remarked that the switch was for his 'paapi pet' (a light-hearted reference to earning a living). A video of Verma performing a magic trick at an occasion is currently spreading on social media.

In the viral video, the former actor performs a famous vanishing performance using a champagne bottle and a newspaper. Verma shared the video on Instagram, writing, “Well, this is where I learned the tricks of being a magician. It was a little difficult, but I managed. It's all in the sleight of hand. Ladies and gentlemen, here comes the magician called AMAN YATAN VERMA (sic).”

The internet reacted with interest and amusement, with admirers bombarding the comments area with queries. A user enquired, "Bhaisahab, ye kis line mein aa gaye aap?" (Brother, what have you gotten yourself into?), to which Aman quipped, "Paapi pet ka sawaal hai, dost. Kya karein?" (It is a matter of survival, my friend. What can I do?

Another person applauded his abilities, saying, "He's a truly gifted actor who brings every character to life." I used to watch all of his TV episodes after school—what wonderful memories! Keep shining; we Indians acknowledge and admire your brilliance (sic).


Meanwhile, another commenter called him a 'naklee aadmi' (false person). Verma replied poetically: "Aajkal meri jaan, asli hai kaun?" Sab log mukhauta laga kar ji rahe hai." (These days, my darling, who is genuine? Everyone wears a mask.
