MUMBAI - Dangal famed actress Zaira Waseem quits Bollywood to turn to religion.
Bollywood actor Zaira Waseem of ‘Dangal’ fame after garnering massive acclaim for her work has decided to bid adieu to her career as an actor as it ‘interfered’ with her faith and religion.
The 18-year-old 'Secret Superstar' actor turned to social media with a detail post that left all taken aback as she announced her disassociation with her line of work, as it brought her out of her ‘imaan’ silently.
"Five years ago I made a decision that changed my life forever. As I stepped my foot in Bollywood, it opened doors of massive popularity for me. I started to become the prime candidate of public attention, I was projected as the gospel of the idea of success and was often identified as a role model for the youth,” she wrote.
"However, that's never something that I set out to do or become, especially with regards to my ideas of success and failure, which I had just started to explore and understand.
"For a very long time now it has felt like I have struggled to become someone else. As I had just started to explore and make sense of the things to which I dedicated my time, efforts and emotions and tried to grab hold of a new lifestyle, it was only for me to realise that though I may fit here perfectly, I do not belong here.
