NIKHIL CHINAPA WIKI, AGE, HEIGHT, FAMILY, WIFE, BIOGRAPHY & MORE

Nikhil Chinapa has been sharing a lot of throwback pictures recently. It looks like he is missing the old days badly and also his friends. He had also shared a picture with actor Ayushmann Khurrana. Both co-hosted two seasons of the reality show India’s Got Talent two decades ago. The actor had made his Bollywood debut with Vicky Donor. And today once again he has taken a trip down a memory lane and shared a throwback picture on Instagram from VJ days.  

Taking to his official handle, he wrote, “#TBT!! Some of @mtvindia’s VJs from the second and third era of MTV's VJ-hunt. I don’t know which year this was but I know it’s been well over a decade since I’ve pulled a face like that!!” In the picture, we can spot him, Sophie Choudry, Anusha Dandekar, Vivan Bhathena, and Ramona Arena. All are looking young as they were just starting their career. Today, all have come a long way in their career but this picture will make you nostalgic. 

He had also shared a picture with Rannvijay Singha, Neha Dhupia, Prince Narula, and Raftar. They were together during Roadies hosting days. He captioned it as ‘#TBT to 2018. I miss these guys!! This was in Bhalukpong during our #RoadiesXtreme journey. What was your favorite moment from that season?’

"From the time I started diving two decades ago, the amount of plastic in our oceans has surged. Pristine reefs now have plastic wrappers and packets floating through them, often getting caught on corals," Nikhil said."Single-use plastic is one of the key ocean pollutants along with microplastics that have now found their way into plankton -- the basic food source of all living creatures in the ocean," he notedNikhil is trying to do his bit to raise awareness about environmental pollution.

"I'm trying to bring to focus the environment and, more importantly, the water crisis we are currently in the middle of. As a nation, we survive from monsoon to monsoon, which is extremely risky. 'Survive' is the apt word as a single failed monsoon will lead to an agrarian and humanitarian crisis in a heartbeat. Preserving and properly managing our rivers, basins, and tributaries is vital to the health of the land and population that lives on it," he said.

"We also need to pay attention to a critical area of water management -- which is groundwater depletion. Focusing on recharging the groundwater aquifers will have enormous benefits for us as a nation with a growing population, whose economy is significantly driven by agricultural growth. Better management will also mean resorting to local and traditional methods of harvesting and storing rainwater," summed up Nikhil, who is supporting the campaign against environmental pollution on "MTV Roadies Revolution".

Much before making his big Bollywood debut in 2012, Ayushmann Khurrana won the audience's over with his quirky hosting style in 2010 with India's Got Talent along with DJ Nikhil Chinapa. The duo were a riot on the stage and usually left everyone in splits with their random one-liners and jokes. On Saturday, Nikhil took to Instagram to share some decade-old photos of them from the sets of IGT in 2010. And we must say, the photos are pure gold. Nikhil also wrote a detailed caption and remembered Ayushmann's 'burning desire' to be an actor and not a star. The post made Ayushmann emotional'. 

Sharing a series of photos and videos, Nikhil wrote, "This is such a lovely memory!! Thank you @envyas!! It’s from 2010 when @ayushmannk and I hosted India’s Got Talent on @colorstv The pictures are from us shooting around Ahmedabad and with contestants in the waiting area. The video is of us dancing in the make-up van we both shared. As usual, I’m playing some house music (Nalin & Kane - Beachball (not sure of the remix)) on my laptop. I’m also not sure what Ayushmann thought of the music but he was most sporting and tolerant of it. I also remember him being extremely encouraging and helpful with my lines. My Hindi (as many of you know) isn’t the best in the world and Ayushmann would gently correct my grammar when I’d mess it up. I’ve struggled with what’s “ka” and what’s “ki” all my life!!"
