Imran Khan is still recognised by his fans as the ‘chocolate boy’ who mesmerised everyone with films like Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na, Break Ke Baad and Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu, among so many others. However, the actor decided to step down from acting after recording a few flat films at the box-office, leaving his fans unsatisfied of seeing more of his works. Fast forward to now, Imran created a stir on the internet with reports of his return to the silver screen.
Recently, Imran Khan turned cover boy for the Vogue Magazine, during which he sat down for a candid interview. Among other conversations, Imran recalled an unusual fan encounter he had in London. The actor revealed a female fan asked him to park her car, without recognising who he was. While Imran carried out the task assigned with chivalry, it was then that another woman, who was sitting in the passenger seat of the car recognised him and was embarrassed at such a demand they made to him. Imran narrated:
“I was walking down a street in London and I could see this car going back and forth and back and forth, trying to parallel park. Door opens and this girl charges out, ‘Can you please help me park my car?’ I take the keys from her and as I am getting in, there is another girl in the passenger seat, who gets out. All of that is happening while I back the car into its spot and I get out and she’s like ‘Thank you. Thank you… are you?’ and I said, ‘yes’ and she goes, oh my God, Oh my God it’s you.”

In another segment of the interview, Imran Khan recalled hitting a rough patch in his life back in 2016, which is why he decided to quit acting. Despite being financially stable, he remarked not feeling excited to act and lacked motivation. He then revealed how it was his daughter, Imara who revived his motivation for work, as a result of which he ended up deciding the need to fix himself for her. Talking about that phase of his life, Imran stated:
“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.”
Previously, on September 5, 2023, Imran Khan penned a detailed post on his social media handle, talking about suffering from mental health struggles in his life. He explained how it was social media which played a key factor in triggering his mental health issues by pouring in a lot of unwanted negativity in his life. Imran revealed how criticisms in the form of old scars still wound him, but they don’t harm him anymore, as he has grown stronger over time.
