Actress Anita Hassanandani is a very popular face in the TV industry and as we know she has essayed many popular roles over her long years of working. Lately she has been on her maternity break. Naagin 5 was her last show after which her son Aaravv was born. Now that her son is four months old, there was news of her not coming back to TV.
And it turns out that the news is right. Anita does not have plans of returning to television anytime soon. She confirmed the same in an interview with Etimes. “I had decided that whenever I would have a child, I would leave the industry and let go of my work. I always wanted to focus on being a mother. So it’s not about the pandemic, I would have either way left the industry, pandemic or no pandemic. I want to be at home with my kid.”
So has she decided to quit acting for good? She says, “Honestly work is the last thing on my mind right now. I really don’t know when I will get back. Although I am doing some work here and there because of the contracts that I had signed with different brands. I am doing all this for social media where I am shooting at home and it is totally stress free. I am being extremely careful too. Maybe one person will come to shoot and the person too has to have a proper test done before coming inside the house. But getting back on a full-fledged set of a TV show, I don’t know when that will happen. But I am sure when I decide to get back, people will get to know.”
Right from feeding her little one to playing with him, Anita is totally focused on her son and his growth, she says. She keeps posting pictures and videos of Aaravv on social media to give people a glimpse of her life. She is happy that her husband Rohit Reddy is also at home with her.
“This is a phase when your child is growing up and if you miss out on this time, then you will never have it again. I am glad that Rohit spends a lot of time with Aaravv bonding with him. Rohit being at home right now is a great thing for both Aaravv and me. Of course the pandemic situation is really sad and we are all hoping for things to improve,” she shares.
We wish her a happy and a fulfilled life.
