No one here is ready to believe that Barun is quitting IPKKND on his own terms and conditions! Everyone believes or rather wants to believe that he is being 'forced' to quit by his production house and specifically by Gul Khan, who is the creative head or whatever!
People are even coming up with their own interpretation of the interview teaser with Gul Khan!!! I thought he looks perfectly at ease and doesn't seem to be fibbing or covering up for someone else or even looking sad! And if there is a hint of sadness in his eyes, that can be easily attributed to the fact that he is going to quit the team he worked with for the last 18 months...anyone would feel sad on such an occassion!
What I don't understand is that even if the Production house was indeed forcing Barun to quit, why on earth would he cover up for them and say that he is quitting on his own?😕 He doesn't have films to do, he doesn't have any other show to work on with 4 Lions or with Gul Khan...in all probability he doesn't own them any money, then what on earth will stop him from saying the truth?
There have been many, many actors prior to Barun Sobti, who were popular leads in daily soaps and were forced to quit midways due to a tussle with the production house...but then they made it very clear that they are being forced to quit...no one tried to shield the creative director or the production house or the channel! Why should they?
Barun is a very popular actor and is loved by his fans...why would he take the ire of his fans by lying for someone else?
The poor guy looks genuinly sick and weak...maybe he does need that break to recoup! Working 12 hours a day, 7 days a week is not an easy feat...and no amount of love and admiration by fans can compensate for the lack of family life and loss of health!
