Harshvardhan Kapoor has shut down speculation around his absence from the screen, clarifying that he has not quit acting.
Responding to a fan on X who posted Kapoor’s picture and questioned his hiatus, the actor revealed he is currently working on an "extremely unique" film. Taking full creative control of his career trajectory, Kapoor announced that he will not only star in the upcoming project but will also serve as its producer.
"@HarshKapoor_ Why have you stepped back from acting. You’re genuinely a talented actor, even if the films didn’t become big blockbusters; your performances were widely praised. Why stop now? Keep hustling... We’d love to see you back on screen soon," read the post.
Replying to the post, Kapoor said he is actively working on the project. "I haven’t stepped back at all been working on a new one since the day 'Thar' released. It took 5 years to get 'Thar' made .. it took many years for Vikram to make 'Bhavesh', and it has taken me 2-3 years now to finish this film. I finished filming on June 30 th. I’m also producing it," he wrote.

Kapoor noted that the audience has become used to actors featuring in several films in the same year. "I guess people are used to actors doing multiple films a year. If you want films like 'Bhavesh' and 'Thar' and 'Ak vs Ak', 'Ray', it’s not gonna happen once or twice a year, that’s just the reality ... But thank you, and the new film is the best one yet, 100 percent its extremely unique," he added.
Harshvardhan, son of Bollywood star Anil Kapoor, made his acting debut in 2016 with the romantic drama film "Mirzya". He later went on to feature in projects such as "Bhavesh Joshi Superhero" and "AK vs AK", among others.
He last appeared in Netflix's "Thar", which released in 2022. He essayed the role of Siddharth Kumar, an antique dealer, in the film.
