The actor, who was recently seen in Radhe Shyam, further mentioned the advantage of having a base in Mumbai. "The advantage of living and having a base in Mumbai is that opportunities come. Luckily, for me, since Mumbai was my base, it became easier to be around. And when you are around, opportunities come up. So, I was lucky enough that opportunities came my way and one thing led to another. And I am just happy that I can make a living being an actor," added Kunaal.
