Well, only he can clarify this or the production house. Regarding his looks, it is obvious that he looks very much tired. Well my mum was telling me, they are showing him look very tired because he is not in the comfort zone, he is facing problems of sleep in GH etc. that is the reason the CVs are reflecting this looks.we do not know the reason? i do not know how many days geet was on air, the PH will have a time frame. As said, if he is quitting the show, they really he is losing one of the most important character in his career arc - A role of ASR never comes daily to an actor. If Barun justified ASR, then ASR also justifies Barun - it is a two way track. Hope it is a rumour - sincerely, let the actor or the PH clarify this.
Rumor or not, Yasmin..I would not mind to see Barun spreading his wings ..It would be selfish of us to expect to see him continuing here, refusing lucrative offers coming to him ...but at the same time it would be unethical for him to dump a show & will be a professional setback were he to come back again since none of the PH would be ready to cast him... Barun is smart enough and diplomatic enough to take and work out all the P & C 's..he will not do anything in haste ..
If he is working on a movie, then I am sure that he would have worked it out with the PH else we would have had negative publicity by now..
