Career
Thakor started singing and playing flute on stage at age of ten with his father Melaji Thakor, a folk and kirtan singer. Initially reluctant to enter the film industry, he debuted in Ek Var Piyu Ne Malva Aavje (2006) which was a commercial hit.[1][2] He starred in several Gujarati films chiefly targeted to rural audience. All eight of his films have been successful at the box office.[3][4]
Thakor's other successful films include Radha Tara Vina Gamtu Nathi (2007), Vaagi kalje Katari Tara Premni (2010), Premi Zukya Nathi ne Zukshe Nahi (2011) and Rasiya Tari Radha Rokani Rannma (2014).[5] His six films earned ₹3 crore (US$420,000) and in 2015 he was considered a superstar of Gujarati cinema in various media.[4][6]
He lives in Gandhinagar.[3]
Controversy
Thakor was accused of duping Gujarati film director, Paresh Patel, of ₹35 lakh (US$49,000) in 2011.[7][8]
