When talking about Billkin (บิวกิ้น), or Putthipong Assaratanakul, a lot of people may know him from his recent movie “How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies”. In the heartwarming movie, Billkin captured the hearts of many audiences with his versatility and depth as an actor as the film follows his character’s comedic and heartfelt journey to secure a fortune before his grandmother’s passing.

However, there’s a lot more to explore when it comes to this talented actor. Let’s delve deeper into the life of Billkin Putthipong, this multi-faceted Thai rising star.

1. “How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies” is his first leading role

“How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies” marks Billkin’s second film appearance, following his guest role in “Brother of the Year.” Despite his brilliant portrayal of his character, this film is Billkin’s debut as a leading actor. Additionally, the actor showcases his musical talent by performing the film’s original soundtrack, “Ever-Forever.”

The film tells the story of a young man, M, who quits his job to take care of his grandmother who is battling cancer. However, his willingness to step up as a dutiful grandson is driven not only by familial love but also by the prospect of a substantial inheritance from his grandmother. He exhausts all efforts to gain his grandmother’s attention and affection. Yet, during the final moments he spends with his grandmother, he discovers and learns great life lessons that transcend mere inheritance.

2. His favourite movie is “Parasite”

Many Billkin fans were surprised to learn that the young star’s favourite movie is “Parasite” – but not because it’s an Oscar-winning film. Some find it ironic considering “Parasite” centres around the life of the poor while the actor himself is from a wealthy “old money” family. If you didn’t know, Billkin is the grandson of one of the CEOs of tyre service chain, B-Quik Company.

3. He nearly got his nickname from a Disney character

Billkin’s father had a whimsical touch when naming his children, drawing inspiration from beloved Disney characters. While Billkin himself narrowly escaped being named “Eeyore” after the melancholic donkey from “Winnie the Pooh,” his siblings carry names straight out of the magical world of Disney. His eldest brother goes by Mickey, a nod to the iconic “Mickey Mouse,” while his second brother’s name pays homage to the lovable bear, Winnie, from the same enchanting tale.

4. He became famous internationally through a BL drama series

“I Told Sunset About You” and its sequel, “I Promised You The Moon,” are prominent Boy-Love (BL) series within the BKPP: The Series lineup. Billkin takes centre stage in both dramas, captivating audiences with his compelling performances. It was through his role in “I Told Sunset About You” that the actor gained widespread recognition, extending his popularity beyond the borders of Thailand.

5. He’s walked the runway in “Boys of Bangkok 2017”

In addition to his acting endeavours, Billkin has also made a mark in the world of fashion as a runway model. Sharing the spotlight with his close friend, PPKritt, Billkin has graced numerous catwalks, often appearing together at prestigious events like “Boys of Bangkok 2017” held at the Emquartier. Their joint appearances highlight not only their individual talents but also their strong camaraderie both on and off the runway.

6. He co-founded a health product company with his family

WITAL stands as a testament to Billkin’s entrepreneurial spirit, co-founded and nurtured by him and his family. From its inception as a mere concept to a fully-fledged health product ready for market, WITAL empowers individuals to invest in their long-term health and prosperity.

Known as a savvy investor among his peers, Billkin’s daily trading activities reportedly yield impressive returns, totaling THB945 million (RM122 million), showcasing his acumen in the world of finance.

7. He built his own entertainment company after Nadao Bangkok closed down

Billkin’s journey in the entertainment industry began under the guiding wing of Nadao Bangkok, a period he fondly recalls as a formative experience. However, with the agency’s closure in 2022, the Thai celeb saw an opportunity for reinvention rather than despair.

Fueled by his passion and determination, he boldly ventured into entrepreneurship, founding his own agency, Billkin Entertainment. With the motto “Billkin begins,” this venture symbolizes a fresh start, providing a platform for Billkin to unleash his creativity and deliver his finest work to audiences in the Thai entertainment landscape.
