He mentioned that he is quitting the show 'Anupamaa' after what was a roller coaster ride for him.

Read his post here:

"It was a beautiful, beautiful journey... a beautiful journey of almost 4 years as your “Toshu” in Anupamaa... The character being just the opposite of who I am as a person has made it more challenging and fun to live with. It has been a huge roller coaster ride. But what a ride!!!
From a topper in college (a mba gold medalist), the most loved son being the 1st born, then the rebel child, drunkard, bhaag kar shaadi karne waala lover, saas ka ghulaam-ghar jamai, selfish money lover, loving brother, comic property dealer, to being bedridden after a stroke, Kyaaa kyaa nahi kiyaa hai yaar in this journey... His love for his father was the most special thing to me on this journey. It brings tears instantly... It's all so overwhelming...
I found some amazing people through this journey who will stay with me for life. And to my audience, my second family, thank you for hating me so much that I could feel your love and connect with me always.
You guys will see me soon in some other roop, or it may be the real me.
I seek your acceptance, love, and blessings forever.

Signing off with tons of gratitude.
