Aayush Sharma reveals why he left SK Films

Aayush Sharma recently opened up on why he moved out of Salman Khan's production company.

While interacting with Bollywood Hungama, the Ruslaan actor clarified that there was no fallout between him and Salman. He said, “It is not like that, it is my house. No actor works with only one production house. Honestly, it is very funny, but my choices have been in a lot of discussions. There are many actors who have worked in their comfort zone, worked with a particular production house, then went out, then went back to the same production house. I wanted to step out, my intention is to go out there.” He further added, “I cannot keep working only in the family, in a closed set-up, because then my growth would also be stunted. It was a conscious decision to move out of the family for some time to work outside. It was important for me to grow, learn myself, evolve and be worthy enough to be called back.”

For the unversed, Aayush made his Bollywood debut with Loveyatri opposite Warina Hussain. The movie was backed by Salman Khan Films. He later appeared in Salman's action-drama Antim: The Final Truth directed by Mahesh Manjrekar. The SK Films production depicted Aayush and Salman's face-off. It also featured Mahima Makwana, Mahesh Manjrekar, Jisshu Sengupta, Sachin Khedekar, Nikitin Dheer, Chhaaya Kadam and others in crucial roles.

Aayush is the son of BJP politician Anil Sharma. His grandfather is veteran Congress leader Pandit Sukh Ram.
