Talking about its significance in his personal life, he added, “Shaadi ki, biwi ke saath honeymoon pe nahi jaa paaye. Uske saath 3 mahine se zyaada baith nahi paaye. Beta hua, ‘papa’ mere peeth peeche usne kaha, chalna mere peeche shuru kiya, uske daant aaye main dekh nahi paaya (I got married but couldn’t go to honeymoon and sit with my wife for more than 3 months. I had my son who started saying ‘papa,’ walk and had his teeth behind my back).”

He admitted watching his son grow up through phone calls, which made him realize that life moves on regardless. However, he emphasized his need to spend more time with his family, travel, read, and rest. Determined to avoid burnout, he assured fans that he has no plans to leave acting.
