Actress Nargis Fakhri is one of the most talented actresses in the Bollywood industry who has stayed away from acting for a long time. Recently, while having a conversation with a popular news portal, Nargis revealed the reason behind taking a break from acting.
Nargis Fakhri revealed, “I never had a day off or I would have a day off. But when you have 1 day off and your friends and family are like 24 hours plane ride, how do you actually get to go see them and recharge? There came a point when I had to ask myself, why am I working so hard when I can’t even enjoy the fruits of my labor? So I had to make a decision. Initially, I said that I need a few months off and people were like if you are going to take a few months off, you are going to be gone. You will just disappear off the map. But then I had to just take that chance and I am happy that I took that chance. I am happy that I wasn’t scared into continuing in that rat race.”
Nargis further added, “I shouldn’t say quit for me because I try not to quit. I think a lot of people need to take time off because we live in a world where it’s like 24/7 work work and people do not prioritize self-care enough. And if you are going to work so much, you are going to burn yourself out, and then what’s going to happen? You’re going to get unwell. You’re not going to be mentally okay or physically okay. So not more about quitting because I think quitting just has a negative connotation attached to it. It’s more, just taking time for yourself. And I mean I put quit and fail, but no one really fails because from your failures you always learn something new. And the point was to really just pick yourself up and keep going because from those failures or if you quit or take time off, you can recharge, regroup, and then learn from your mistakes and then become better. So that was the actual thought behind it.”
