A while back, former actor Zaira Wasim, who gained recognition from the films ‘Dangal’ and ‘Secret Superstar’ bid adieu to the entertainment industry saying that the environment damaged her peace, ‘Imaan’ and her relationship with Allah.
Now, former Bigg Boss contestant Sana Khan has also announced her disassociation with the film industry citing religious reasons, reported Hindustan Times.
Sana took to social media to make the announcement. She has also deleted all her glamorous pictures from her Instagram account.
Sana penned a note stating the reason for her retirement. The ‘Jai Ho’ actor said that she has realized that ‘this life is actually for the betterment of life after death’. Hence, she is quitting showbiz to ‘serve humanity and follow the order of the Creator.’
She went on to say that “for a few days now, I have been possessed of the realization that: Is the real purpose of man’s coming into this world only to chase wealth and fame?”
She added:
“Isn’t it a part of his/her duty to spend his/her life in the service of those who are needy and helpless? Shouldn’t a person think that he/she could die at any moment? And what will happen to him after he/she is no more?”
While looking for answers, she realized that “this life in the world is actually for the betterment of life-after-death. And it would be better if the slave lives according to the command of his Creator, and does not make wealth and fame his only goal.”
Here’s her lengthy note:
Several of her colleagues from the industry came in support of her decision.
Let’s hope Sana finds solace in what she thinks is best for her.
