Actress Shefali Sharma, who is known for her role as Bani in Bani – Ishq Da Kalma is returning to TV with Sanjog after six years. Shefali talked about it during a recent interview with BT and shared, “I was doing Punjabi films. Besides, I wasn’t too pleased with the kind of projects I was being offered on TV. Sanjog is clutter-breaking and that’s the reason why I have taken it up.”
Shefali will be essaying the role of a mother in Sanjog just like her last show Tere Bin. Talking about it, the actress said, “Like Tere Bin, in Sanjog, too, I have a daughter who is around six. For me, the story matters. Even when I took up Tere Bin, I didn’t think ki mera character ek mother ka hai. I am fine with playing mother to a child artiste as long as my character is pivotal to the storyline. Having said that, I won’t be comfortable with the idea of playing a mom to a 15 or 20-year-old. Meri age ke baraabar nahi hona chahiye mera bachha in a show.”
When asked when is she planning to embrace motherhood in real life, she replied, “Of course, I want to be a mother, but it’s too soon for me. I have a couple of years to take that plunge. I am just 29. Our parents asked us about planning our family initially but they realized that we are mature enough to take our decisions. For now, work is our priority. I took a long break from TV and want to focus on my career at the moment. If not now, then when?”
