Grover has now revealed that he was not motivated to go to work as around the time his daughter with wife Bipasha Basu had to undergo heart surgery.  Last year, the couple shared that Devi was born with two holes in her heart and had to undergo surgery.

Talking to India Today about the time they got to know about Devi's heart condition, Karan said, "(At the) beginning of every schedule, I felt like not going to work because it was very serious and to be away was very difficult. Also, I did not handle it very well. I was like water on the floor. I think it's because of Bipasha that I got the strength to kind of go through that and still be here. I really felt like, for me, death would be easier than going through that.”
