In this exclusive conversation with Anupama Chopra, we see Imran Khan give his first interview, post his sabbatical. He talks about what these years were like, and how he put the focus on himself and his mental health. He delves deep into the reasons that led him to quitting the industry 9 years ago, and all that makes him want to still tell stories, from and to the heart. He shares his experiences of being overtly self-sufficient, and what kind of scripts he’s looking at now, in order to make a comeback on the big screen. #ImranKhan #JaaneTuYaJaaneNa #EkMainAurEkTu 00:00 - In conversation with Imran Khan 02:20 - When would the hashtag “Laut Tao Imran” become a reality? 04:19 - Where is Imran in life today? 07:31 - Did Imran fall out of love with films, or the film industry? 10:05 - Was failure the immediate trigger for stepping down? 12:26 - Feeling damaged inside and sorting out therapy 16:32 - What were the years post Katti-Batti like? 19:17 - Was walking away from the glamorous life hard? 22:57 - What’s the re-engaging been like? 24:13 - Being loved by viewers even today 26:16 - Anupama’s theory about Imran 30:05 - The toxicity of social media 33:56 - Imran’s piece on why he isn’t on social media and PR (2013) 40:57 - Imran’s honest expression of emotions on Instagram 45:02 - Walking away from his palatial house in Bandra 48:53 - Imran cutting his own hair and being overtly self-reliant 50:34 - Is Imran’s partner Lekha okay with the three plates? 51:12 - Two artists being in a relationship 52:20 - Was taking a break a mistake? 58:22 - Anything that Imran does daily for his mental health? 1:00:55 - Are Imran and Abbas Tyrewala working on a spy series? 1:02:20 - “I don’t want to play a character who solves problems with a gun” 1:05:23 - Audience messages for Imran
