Former Machachari actor Ian Nene, popularly known as Almasi, has resurfaced online after a prolonged social media hiatus, marking his return with his first-ever TikTok livestream. The 25-year-old creative used the platform to reconnect with fans, share his transformative journey, and open up about his ongoing health struggles.
For the past three years, Nene has been living in a Hindu temple, an experience he says has profoundly shaped his perspective on life. His return to social media was met with curiosity and excitement from fans who fondly remember him from his childhood acting days. However, amid the nostalgia, Nene candidly shared that he is battling a health crisis, though he did not disclose specific details, promising to provide further updates in the future.
Reflecting on his early years in the entertainment industry, Nene marveled at how quickly time has passed. “Me and my bros, Malik and family, we were 12 years old the other day. Very fast, we will be 40 and 50. I do not want to die thinking about haters. I will die thinking about the things that are important to me,” he expressed.
Nene urged his followers to focus on their personal growth rather than engaging in negativity. He emphasized that people should not harbor resentment towards others simply because they are pursuing things beyond their reach. “Do not hate people just because they are doing stuff you cannot do. I am going through health issues, so I must do something so that I am not just lying around in the house and doing nothing. Do something, take a step, learn a course,” he advised.
The actor also addressed the toxic nature of online interactions, reminding netizens that their opinions do not always need to be voiced. “You have to learn that your opinion doesn’t need to be heard everywhere, all the time. You just have too much going on. Because frankly, if I were to die today, would you come and take me home? Would you even be present?” he questioned.
Ending his heartfelt session, Nene expressed gratitude towards those who have supported him despite the criticisms he has faced over the years. He reinforced the importance of kindness and personal fulfillment, concluding that happiness is not dictated by outsiders. “The person who isn’t happy is the person who has time to tell others whether they are happy or not. Maybe that says more about you than it does about me.”
As he continues his journey, fans eagerly anticipate further insights into his experiences and updates on his health. His message serves as a reminder to prioritize what truly matters in life self-growth, positivity, and meaningful connections.
