Imran Khan, the Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na actor who has moved himself away from the spotlight of cinemas for nine long years is now starting to plan to make a comeback to the world of cinemas.
The actor recently opened up about the reason behind his break in an interview given to Vogue India. Imran Khan said he wanted to fix himself and be the best version of himself for his daughter Imara. Imarn Khan leaving his fantasy life behind, chose to live in a small apartment in Bandra. He sold his cherry-red Ferrari and even wore his 10-year-old suit proudly. In his ascetic lifestyle, the actor has only stocked three plates, three forks, two coffee mugs, and one frying pan. In fact, the actor has begun to find the joy of life in simplicity.
Imran Khan during his interview said, “I hit a low in 2016 where I felt broken inside. Luckily, I was working in an industry that had rewarded me financially, so by the time I was 30, I didn’t have to worry about money. At that point, it wasn’t my career because I wasn’t excited by it enough to want to work hard for it.”
He then further added that, after being the father he understood the sole purpose of his life. “This is valuable. This is something I take seriously.’ I wanted to be the best version of myself for Imara”. Being completely delighted to find his inner core, he said, “I decided it was no longer my job to be an actor. Now, I had to fix myself; be at my healthiest and strongest for my daughter”.
Imran and then-wife Avantika got married in 2011 and welcomed their daughter Imara in 2014. The couple later got divorced in 2019.
Now the actor has decided to take small steps in the direction of facing the camera again. An innocent comment on Instagram has led to the comeback of the actor. But the charming actor has no regret for being away from the scene for so long.
