Imran Khan, the actor who made his debut with Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na alongside Genelia Deshmukh, created quite a buzz in Bollywood. However, he took a prolonged break from films, considering a comeback only after receiving requests from audiences who missed lighthearted romantic comedies in Bollywood, a genre in which he has several successful films.

In a recent interview with Film Companion, Imran discussed whether he has found a script for a comeback. He also shared if he believes taking a break was a mistake.

The actor shared that he's still trying to process the idea of returning to the film industry and public life.

He's been engaging in creative conversations and has found a few things he liked. However, he hasn't received any offers that are completely ready for production and that he truly connected with. Some offers require further development, which will take time.

Imran Khan contemplates whether his hiatus from films was a misstep

The Delhi Belly actor discussed at length whether taking a long break from acting was a mistake. He believes life is more than just his career; he's not defined solely by being a Bollywood actor.

Despite only appearing in 12 films professionally, he doesn't measure success solely by quantity or earnings. What matters most is what one wants from life. He always felt that if he truly desired it, he could find a way back to acting or explore other roles in the film industry, like directing or making independent films.

He rejects the notion that sticking to one career path is the only way to succeed. While many feel pressured to keep up with others, he's never felt that urge. He thinks society has lost sight of contentment. People always want more without appreciating what they already have.

Despite not making a film in a decade, he cherishes the 12 films he's been a part of, considering them blessings. He believes in sufficiency and feels grateful for the opportunities he's had. If another chance to make a film comes his way, he sees it as yet another blessing.
