Later, he went to the New York Film Academy to complete a course in filmmaking and has been missing in action since then. In between, Sharad tried his luck with the forgettable film From Sydney With Love. He was also involved with his co-star Divyanka Tripati and has allegedly broken off with her a while back.

Emerging back
