Apart from his musical career, he was also a famous actor in the state. He starred in several local films, most notably “Khawnglung Run”, a historical drama that remains one of the most widely viewed Mizo films to date.
Apart from that, he also starred in “Dakpu” in 2024 despite already being diagnosed with cancer.
Alex married fellow Gospel singer Gracy in 2014, and the couple has one daughter.
