As per sources , when he was asked whether it will be easy for him to let go ,Farhan said,”It has been a difficult process —emotional, mental as well as physical. It takes time to move on. It is important to not get stuck emotionally. You need to shed your old skin in order to let the new skin replace it. Will you believe it if I say, that I really got used to the beard and the long hair, so much so that it actually helped me think better. But it is difficult to keep up with the routine as I have my other films as well”.
He also added that the best part of letting go was getting back with his friends,”I had changed my lifestyle completely for the film. I had changed my diet as well as my sleeping pattern. A lot of friends felt that I was ignoring them, as I had to sleep by 10pm. So getting back with my friends is something that I am looking forward to”.
