Though taking part in the contest was for fun he soon started loving the excitement that the show bought in his life. His hard work started, there by making him the winner of the biggest contest of aspiring actors ever.
After a lot of running around, scripting, meetings, requests and 2 years of patience his first film called Khanna & Iyer was made and released by Mukta Arts and financed by Zee Television.
Though the film didn't do well at the box office Sarwar's caliber, competence and hard work helped him to survive in the worst conditions.
Prior to the contest, Sarwar was always appreciated for his acting and dancing skills and would always become the center of attraction at any event or a party. The contest was the push that he needed and deserved to enter Bollywood.
