• Akshaye views his father's move as "sannyas" (renunciation), understanding it as a profound, life-changing decision rather than abandonment.
• Vinod Khanna returned because Osho's commune was disbanded due to conflicts with the US government, not due to disillusionment.
• Akshaye himself respects Osho's teachings and wisdom, having read his lectures, but is unsure if he could embrace sannyas.
