“Laut Aao Imran” - An Imran Khan Exclusive Interview with Anupama Chopra | Film Companion

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.

That's how you forget to differentiate art from artist. IF the script justifies the character to use a gun anyway, and this guy fails to see it, he brings his morals into the job, without realising he's just acting.

[@sabrinakhan8217]

Yes, what he has is genes and looks from Pakistani regions. Bollywood is going through a crisis. Genes and looks from Pakistani regions like ( Kapoors, Kumars, Khannas, Dutts, Tandons, Khans Roshans etc) are either dead or over 45.

[@simonpegg1196]

Imran is a perfect example of a 90s kid (I'm the same age as him), who has been unable to come to terms with how drastically and for the worse things have changed in the world - not just the entertainment industry, but the world around him. We were born into simpler times - TV had recently been introduced (Mahabharat every Sunday morning), more personal interaction, friendly banter with everyone, no internet, or cell phones. Days could be spent daydreaming. Everything changed post 2000. He seems like an empath who feels things deeply, and is just not cut out for the cut-throat world of cinema, which looks glamorous on the outside, but is soulless on the inside.

[@shivani_marmalade]

Bang on. Maybe he will show up in smaller stories on digital platforms.. hopefully some of the suits will have some foresight and understand that there are people who will be able to engage with him and what he has to say. Though I don't really have a lot of hope from the suits either. But I believe there are good people in the "system"/"machine". I mean I have to :) nothing much else that keeps us going otherwise.

[@simonpegg1196]

@@shivani_marmalade It's unfortunate that good people are a dying breed now-a-days. Even more unfortunate is the fact that some of Imran's best years were spent away from the arc lights, but he just doesn't seem like the kind of person who can sell his soul and be able to sleep well at night. May be he can try his hand at script writing - his intellect will come into play. That way he can still be associated with cinema, just that it'll be behind the scenes. Not every good looking person (and especially someone with real intelligence and sensible ideas) can make it big as an actor.

[@mattersthatmatter7990]

With all due respect I'm 91 born and I'm not near 40 for as much as I can process. But I get what you mean. The switch from TV to computer and mobiles, from gali to playstation, there was a massive shift we experienced. Imran has a rich soul. He is blessed with humility and is trying to reconnect with a changing audience and feel he will have his comfort place.

[@sandeepmatta9877]

Man, seeing so much support for Imran is really overwhelming. I clearly remember how he was criticised heavily and bashed with negative comments by the media and people that he completely vanished from the face of the earth. I thought only God works in mysterious ways. Even media and us does that too…

Ekk Mai aur ekk tu is my most favourite romantic comedy film. Critics weren't too kind to it and not many people watched it but I absolutely loved it, how gorgeous they both looked in it and how beautiful and fresh was the story. The fact that it didn't need the two of them to end up together in the end is something we still don't see too much of. The music was so good. Imran you were such a part of my childhood and early teens.

After 1 hour plus (around 2 and half mins on mins on) Imran talks about the current trend of glamourization, fetishization, sexualization of violence. 'I don't want to be a character who solves problems through violence ' Imran, your thinking is spot on. Animal was the perfect example of a terrible violent film with little to redeem it . Loved you in Delhi Belly while watching it couple of months back on Netflix . And Jaane Tu is eternal . Come back bachey.:)

[@deepeshpanicker7225]

This interview was pure gold. Reminds us of the innocence of the times gone by. He was truly on point regarding the over the top titillation of violence sans any consequences or emotions. The world where it is right now needs more filmmakers who think like him to bring us stories of our common man. Also, this interview does more for the destigmatisation of mental health problems than a lot of the educational or motivational ones. Personal stories told with genuinity can serve this purpose better than anything.

[@marzanaahmed5730]

What an interview! A guy who was not less than a superstar, thinks about life just as a regular human being. This interview shows that there is way more depth in his character than just being a chocolate boy image. I loved all you films,plz come back.

[@smithshah]

I was always a fan of Imran Khan the actor but today I fell in love with Imran Khan the person. Talking about your own mental health takes guts. I think this would inspire more men to take therapy and seek help. I liked the way you let down your guard and were open about everything you went through. I really like the idea of having 3 dishes (I might try that as well). We're surrounded with this notion that life is a race and we must always move forward. If we don't do so, we would be left far behind. But very few people stop to think what do they want with their lives. What is the meaning of life? What is your purpose? If you weren't an actor, I'd say you could have a great future ahead as a motivational speaker. This interview definitely made me feel better. It gave me hope. It was good to see you smiling again! Keep moving forward and do things that make you happy.

[@megshire16]

The way you have laid bare your intensely personal struggles with managing your emotions, thoughts and setting them straight will educate many people and resonate with so many others who have gone through similar phases. It is really generous and brave of you to have opened your heart despite being a public figure and being a subject of unwarranted scrutiny. Your pursuit of authenticity and simplicity in this ego-driven, delusional world is also refreshing. Hope you get to work in the films you believe in, Imran. Best wishes and healing energy to you 🧿🌸
