Actor Imran Khan quit Bollywood after starring in Katti Batti with Kangana Ranaut in 2015. Now, almost after a decade, rumour has it that Imran will make a comeback soon but till now, nothing has been confirmed. Speaking about his comeback which has become a hot topic, Imran revealed that he has been turning down brand endorsement offers as he doesn’t want people to think he’s not coming back for money.
Imran Khan on his comeback
Speaking about his comeback, Imran told HT, “Truth be told, it is a little surprising. When I was actively working, I had PRs, managers, and then in addition to that, you also had to come on social media. When I sought to get away from all that, I dropped all of these things. My intention was to not be present in the public domain. After spending 10 years trying to be invisible, for people to have that curiosity is somewhat counterintuitive. Almost all brands have approached me in the last year for endorsements. I turned down everyone. I don’t want people to say ‘he’s back for the money’.“
When asked if Katti Batti failure was the reason behind quitting the industry, he said, “No, it was not a specific thing. It was a gradual realization. I’m doing all of those things in which you sign an endorsement, do appearances, this brand thing, I’m earning more money, but I’m not interested by it. I’m not feeling like whatever feeling you’re supposed to get, if I’ve earned this much money in a year. I said until I read or hear a film I want to do for free, I won’t do a film. And I did, I directed a short film in 2018, Mars: Keep Walking, which was a labour of absolute love.“
Imran on battling depression
The Jaane Tu Yaa Jaane Naa actor even revealed that he was battling with depression. He said, “The thing about depression, anxiety, all of these things is there are shades that exist yet you don’t recognize. Of course, until I had the vocabulary for a lot of it, I do not consider that I had anxiety.“
