Imran Khan, who has gained a new fanbase, courtesy his social media game, opened up about a time when director Karan Johar wanted to “sex-up” his image. Imran Khan worked in Karan Johar’s production I Hate Luv Storys where he was paired opposite Sonam Kapoor. Directed by Punit Malhotra, Imran Khan played a playboy in the rom-com.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

When Imran Khan was showed an old photo-shoot, the actor recalled how Karan Johar put an effort to make him look effortlessly sexy on screen. “Karan kind of decided to sex-up my image. I generally do not gain much weight but I was minding my diet and exercising and all of that for the film particularly. Karan said we are going to cash in on this. We did a lot of… kind of topless shoots,” the actor told Moments of Silence podcast.<\/a><\/p>\n

Imran Khan left the industry<\/a> at his prime to focus on his mental health. Last year, in an interview with Vogue, the actor revealed why he decided to take a break from acting.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“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. I had recently become a father and thought, ‘This is valuable. This is something I take seriously.’ I wanted to be the best version of myself for Imara. 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,” he told Vogue.<\/p>\n

There’s a strong buzz that Imran Khan would make his comeback soon. However, there’s no official confirmation about it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
