Paras Chhabra has been missing from the television scene. The past couple of years have been challenging for the actor as he has been battling anxiety. Paras, who also gained weight during this time, is currently trying to get back in shape and gearing up for a comeback. "After a long time, I am feeling healthy mentally. I had this anxiety issue for which I was taking therapy. Plus, I was not gymming all this while because of anxiety issues. I have consulted a good doctor for mental health in my family. I also have a good trainer to train me in the gym. When I consulted a doctor for my anxiety, he counseled me that whatever I was facing was normal and with me, it was mostly because of my profession. We, actors, don’t have a fixed routine and often, there can be gaps between two projects. In my case, the gap was a little longer. Plus, I am staying in Chandigarh and rarely go out, so according to the doctor it was all adding up to the anxiety issues."
Meanwhile, Paras revealed that he had to say no to a lot of offers coming his way. "I had to refuse a lot of offers for TV shows because of my weight issues. I also got a call for Khatron Ke Khiladi but I refused it because of my weight. Before Bigg Boss 13 happened, I was a gym freak and in the best of shape but now I am not. But I am working out a lot now and I will be back in shape very soon."
