As SA was reaping success, rumors of being the flavor of the month of a network insider started to circulate. After all, his being included in high profile projects was often questioned because his acting skills were still too raw. Still, SA persevered. He became part of several significant teleseryes and hit movies. SA was even singing and hosting, which kept fans interested in him. With his earnings, he started investing in various high profile ventures.
However, time was not kind on SA. Younger talents started finding their places in the network and his contemporaries started moving on, getting left and right recognition and even settling down. His investments failed to bring in profit. When SA realized that his career seemed to be stagnant with his network, as he was not being given his usual projects, he started to negotiate with another network. This network thought SA was going to transfer and even prepare a welcome, but SA suddenly had cold feet and stayed on with his network.
The decision to stay on did not really change anything. Other stars had overtaken him and soon, he chose to settle down. Nonetheless, things did not work out well. With no solid career and a failed love life, SA moved on. As years passed, his acting career had to take the backseat, but his presence filled the gossip pages because of his choices of whom to love.
While everyone thought he was staying out of acting, his network gave him another chance. However, as soon as the project was announced, circumstances forced it to be shelved for a time. Rather than wait, SA tried his luck with Another Network (AN) and he was given a meaty role. However, SA continued with his snobbish attitude, which some claimed resulted from his hobnobbing with the society crowd.
When the project commenced, the production was faced with the attitude of SA like he was still the big star eons ago. SA did not even consider that he was just one of many stars in the said project. For him, he was still a star, and the production felt that seeming sense of entitlement of SA. SA was giving them a headache, such as coming late to the set and behaving like a prima donna. Lucky for him, the crew patiently worked on the said project. Unfortunately, the attitude of SA did not do anything good for the show. His acting was still the same and fans were not interested in him. After a few weeks, the project was ended, as the ratings were too low. Meanwhile, SA still carried on, feeling like he was still a huge star and his whims should be followed.
