He added, “I have always been spiritual because of my parents and at this point in life when I was feeling low, I turned towards God.'' Singh said he went on a spiritual journey and had no plans of coming back but God gave him a sign that made him change his decision and he returned home.
After Gurucharan went missing, many thought he planned his disappearance for publicity. He clarified saying it's ''not true'' and added, ''If I wanted publicity, I could have given interviews to talk about the pending dues for my work in Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. I could have used social media to do that, but I didn’t. Even after coming back home, I didn’t give any interviews, but now I am speaking up because I want to clarify certain things that people are saying about me.”
The 51-year-old actor revealed that he is now asking people from the industry to support him as he wants to do a lot of work. He also said that he wants to clear all his loans and debts and feels that can happen through his work, and is ready to work hard. ''I have realised that I can continue my spiritual journey even while fulfilling my other responsibilities in life,” he said.
