Wow - so many replies to my post! :-) I respect all the views as we all are entitled to our own views. But one thing we have common in all of us - we all are huge Barun/ASR fans.

Its just that I didnt feel today Barun's interview was heartfelt or genuine. Nobody expects him to reveal the IPK track. All we wanted was a sincere promise that he will definitely come back to IPK. He did mention that he is coming back but for some reason I didnt see the enthusiasm. (we can blame it on tiredness, lack of PR...etc. but we are his loyal fans... he could give us a heartfelt reassurance).

Agree - like I said he is tired of the stressful daily schedule...now he has made a place for himself in the industry, he knows he is good, he is probably financially more secure...and this is the reason he does not feel insecure with opportunities available to him...

Before he took on BHPH he let go of a lead role with Balaji production...Barun follows his gut feeling with projects that excite him...IPKKND was different, he wasn't sure but it hit off...that's why he says he does not plan but he is sure of what he likes or does not and he takes informed risks to test the waters...there is vast opportunity in media today lots of things...he had even mentioned he wants to try theater...he has had no formal training in acting, he is taking the opportunities with projects to learn hands on and for this he had to explore and experiment...he is lucky he got a good team on his movie where all are fairly new to the movie world venturing out and this is a great platform for learning for him...having Pooja Gujral on the team who has backing from Kumar mangat/Ajay Devgan/Bappi Lahiri/Adeeb Rais this movie will be successful...

Can understand the plight of fans...wanting him back on the show...have only started watching daily a year back...never liked saas bahu saga...but having joined the forum and reading about the new crowd in telly world everyone is using TV as stepping stone to bollywood...people are launching their own production houses in a short span...some are risk takers some are not...Sushant Singh Rajput quit PR...he has bagged a great role too...Sheban Azim is doing movies...some people are managing both worlds...its normal...we need to chill...enjoy the show for its storyline

Guys plz stop assuming and making false speculation..
He was interviewd today just to ask that he is not leaving the show and he clearly said that..I don't think he is aware of what;s going on this forum that people are upset and scared and missing him...he is shooing non stop and Abhaas and Lalit Mohan clearing rumors, so it is obvious he doesn't even know that there is this much hype going on, this forum has only 1500-2000 people, there are millions of people we are talking about outside this forum, don't assume the state of the world is same as state of this forum...
This forum doesn't represent his entire fans and don't represent the emotion of entire nation or rest of his fans outside this forum..
And I guess if Noreen had asked him that can you please assure your fans I am sure he would have...n today the phone line was not that clear..Barun's voice was not clear..and some of the questions Noreen asked he prob didn't get it and answered something else..
For his wife;s cooking also he thought she asked him about his cooking,...I think he was confused with the London question.

And last time he gave interview from his house..today he was on set..it is so loud on sets with so many people around, plus it's a new team for him..give him benefit of doubt..
And it is not that he signed movie overnight..I am sure he got it 2-3 months ago and shooting started now..shooting doesn't start in a week...and he clearly said 2 weeks ago only when we were not aware that he has got the movie that IPK has a long way to go and they can't ahve great writing everyday, and please forgive us for the days we are not good, but we have lot more stuff coming up...
So why people are saying he is not promoting IPK? He was not here to day to promote IPK but just to state that he si not leaving IPK and people wanted to know more information about his movie..

So plz stop judging him...don't take anything you read hear in media..they get money to sell their masala news..you don't have to be fool n buy everything they sell..

And if also, if you see there are at least his 5 or 6 interview in last 30 hours..the man is tired..every where he is just clearing that no he is not quitting IPKKND..so he did the same here..we expected that he would assure us, you don't know what Noreen told him this interview is about..

I didn't listen to his interview but now I won't bother. It sounds like he spoke mostly about his movie. Sorry, I love him but I couldn't care less about his movie because I don't like movies in general and this one looks like a disaster in the making.

The interview's main objective was to reassure your fans right - then do it with sincerity. It is not costing you anything. You take 40 days or take 2 months your fans will be waiting for you relentlessly but give them the assurance. Take them in confidence - what is wrong with that.

How was Aamir Khan - very much media reclusive and slowly he understood his weakness and took the public in his stride and see where he has reached. He is a brand by himself. Fans are necessary - they are his PR.

everyone follows his destiny - these words are inappropriate for a person like me who is unambititious. Best of luck.

Agree he could have definitively confirmed he will be back in 40 days or a month since fans were excited/missing him...being media friendly helps but he is shy and hates attention and he likes his privacy, it will come with time/experience for him too how to face up to questions/attentions its new for him...he sounded unsure in his response may be coz he does not know yet as he just started shooting for his movie 3-4 days back...giving him benefit of doubt instead of jumping to conclusion being judgmental...he has built rapport on IPKKND sets things probably are more flexible there vs. movie sets...

I hv read WU and dont interest to hear the interview...I dont bother abt Barun's movie..so i dont interest whrabts of it..I dont gonna watch it...It is good for him to comeback to IPK ...thats all I can say...

umm well ... i wanna say that barun came on the show 4 us not 4 himself ... he came 2 give us messages n answers not 2 promote ipkknd which will benifit him !
