Before joining the Real Estate world, Bhalo worked for an aviation college stationed at Wilson Airport for a month and a half on a managerial role. However, he exited the Aviation industry days after effects of Covid-19 downed on his employer.

In October 2019, Bhalo penned down a farewell message to his K24 viewers, after the station retrenched a good number of its employees, in the quest to cut down costs.
