He had said, 'I am someone who believes that a person must focus on only one task at a time and do it well. Therefore, I am doing one job now. As I have to direct a film and as I have several responsiblities, I thought I should give a small pause to my stint as an IPL commentator,' he had said. Stating that he felt bad even saying that he wasn't going to be commentating, RJ Balaji said that this was 'just a small pause' and that 'After I finish this shoot, God willing, I will see you all in the next season of the IPL.'
