Whenever I am available I wish to share these videos with you,” he said in the middle of shoot.“I may not be by your side, but I’ll go looking for you soon, if you just wait a little. I’ll be back soon. That’s all for today. Next time when I have the time, I’ll share another video. That’s all for now," he signed off with a sincere smile and waved to the camera.
