Imran Khan Doesn’t Want A Manager, Says ‘I Want To Find My Work’ Ahead Of Much-Awaited Comeback

Imran Khan is all set for his most awaited comeback with the film Adhoore Hum Adhoore Tum, co-starring Bhumi Pednekar and Gurfateh Pirzada. While his comeback has been most awaited for years, Imran recently spoke about how he is very cautious about not having a manager or PR team, as he doesn’t wish anyone to find work for him.

Speaking to HT, Khan shared, “I have worked at a time when I had a PR and a manager. Having had a taste of it and knowing what it brings to your world, I now don’t want those things. I don’t want a manager who will go out there and look for work for me. The manager’s pay percentage depends on keeping me steadily employed, because of which he may push me to do things I don’t want to. I don’t want them to find work for me;

I want to find my work. Engaging in the PR game is a full-time job. It takes hours every day sitting with the PR team, planning strategies, and reviewing the results. Because of how much everyone does it, the public is aware of it. Now the public looks at everything with speculation, is this a PR stunt, what is the angle behind it? I’d rather work at my own pace.”

Imran further opened up about his film Adhoore Hum Adhoore Tum and called it a “character story approached from where I’m in my life,” and continued, “I’m a divorced man in my 40s and a parent. A story with such shades is what makes it interesting to me.”

His adult debut came in 2008 with Jaane Tu… Ya Jaane Na, which catapulted him to fame. Directed by Abbas Tyrewala and produced by Aamir Khan, Jaane Tu… Ya Jaane Na was a youthful romantic comedy that resonated with audiences.
