<\/p>\nActor Harshvarrdhan Kapoor has addressed speculation surrounding his apparent absence from the screen, clarifying that he has not stepped away from acting and has instead been working on a new project for the past few years.

Harshvarrdhan Kapoor BREAKS SILENCE on four-year hiatus after Thar: \u201cI haven\u2019t stepped back at all\u201d<\/p>\n
The user wrote that while his films may not have become major commercial successes, his work had been widely appreciated and audiences would like to see him return to the screen. Responding to the post, Harshvarrdhan dismissed the notion that he had quit acting and explained the lengthy timeline behind the kind of projects he chooses to pursue.<\/p>\n
\u201cI haven\u2019t stepped back at all been working on a new one since the day Thar released it took 5 years to get Thar made .. it took many years for Bhavesh to make and its taken me 2-3 years now to finish this film ok working on which I finish filming on June 30 th.. I\u2019m also producing it,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n
The actor also pointed out that audiences are often accustomed to seeing mainstream stars release multiple projects every year. According to him, films such as Bhavesh Joshi Superhero, Thar, AK vs AK and Ray require considerably more time to develop and complete.<\/p>\n
\u201cI guess people are used to actors doing multiple films a year .. if you want films like Bhavesh and Thar and Ak vs Ak\/ Ray it\u2019s not gonna happen once or twice a year that\u2019s just the reality,\u201d he added. Harshvarrdhan concluded his response by expressing confidence in his upcoming venture. \u201cBut thank you and the new film is the best one yet 100 percent its extremely unique.\u201d<\/p>\n
