The Bollywood actress and mother of three-month old son Viaan, Shilpa Shetty has recently said in an interview that she is enjoying motherhood and is not planning to come in films right now.
Talking to media, the actress said, “Right now, I am a full-time mother and completely enjoying it. I have no time for films. I am on a sabbatical for I don’t know how long. Motherhood is such an amazing experience that everything else takes a back seat.”
Shilpa Shetty is married to London-based businessman Raj Kundra and became a mother on May 21. she was talking to media in an event at national capital, where she visited to promote skin-care line Olay. It was Shilpa Shetty’s first public appearance post-delivery.
Shilpa Shetty said, “Life has changed from being a woman to a mother but it is beautiful.”
The 37-years-old actress said, “There are surely lot of insecurities about your weight, skin and the way you look post-pregnancy. But all this becomes a lot easy when you have good and right advice.”
She said, “There are pressures on every woman but being a celebrity when we are scrutinised every time for everything, the pressure surely increases. But I haven’t started losing weight because it is not on my priority list right now. It is my baby and all that is important for him that tops the list.”
She said that loosing weight is more time consuming as compared to skin care.
She said, “Losing weight and being in shape requires a lot of hard work, a lot of time, a balanced diet. But when it comes to skin care, it is far easier. I think less is more when it comes to skin. The lesser you do it, the better it looks. That has always been my mantra.”
Shilpa said, “We are in a time and age when people don’t want to see something fake or too overly done up. If you have to look good, you should have good and healthy skin.”
