Niti Taylor who is known for her role in the show Ishqbaaz is back to work after a break of two years. Niti married her childhood sweetheart, and now Army officer, in 2020. The actress has made a comeback with a music video also featuring Pratik Sehajpal and Parth Samthaan.
In a recent interview with BT, Niti talked about it and shared, “People think I took a break because of my marriage, but the fact is when I got married the pandemic started raging and I have health issues. I was scared to come to Mumbai because if I got COVID I would be all by myself. It was scary in both the first and second waves as people got badly affected and I didn’t want that for myself.”
She added, “Now I have come to terms that if at all I get COVID, it won’t be as bad. I am still very careful on sets and wear a double mask though I see no one around is wearing them anymore. I am glad I come from an Army background where everything is so systematic, and you have to mask up. I am super finicky. It irritates a lot of people, but I don’t care, I need to be safe at the end of the day.”
Talking about her life post marriage, Niti shared, “I attend Welfare Center and do my regimental duties, and everything required of me. My husband is a blessing in my life and strongly supports my every decision. He nudges me to go to Mumbai and start working. He doesn’t know anything about the industry and asks cute questions like you have to shoot for 12 hours etc. My in-laws are more supportive and excited about my work than my own parents.”
Niti got married in the presence of just four people attending her marriage including her parents and in-laws due to the COVID protocol. Talking about it, she shared, “Though small, ours was a beautiful Gurudwara wedding. We thought karni toh hai hi shaadi, toh abhi kar lete hain. But, since Parikshit’s sisters and my family are abroad and haven’t been able to travel yet because of restrictions, even after two years we are waiting for a proper shaadi function.”
