Filmmaker-actor Farhan Akhtar, who has been busy with his films and IIFA awards, is now in a holiday mood and says he is taking his time off from work.

"A big thank you to all who cheered Shahid Kapoor and me on...we're happy to have entertained you. Until the next time," the 38-year-old tweeted.

He had a successful stint as a co-host with Shahid Kapoor at the just concluded 13th International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) awards ceremony this year.

"And now it's finally time for a long overdue vacation. Will be flying under the radar... Will make contact when I return. Adios," he further posted.

Farhan, whose production "Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara" bagged nine awards at the IIFA awards, will next be seen in Rakeysh Mehra's biopic "Bhaag Milkha Bhaag". He plays the title role in the film and followed a gruelling training programe to portray world famous athlete Milkha Singh.
