MUMBAI:
Known for her role as Mohini in hit TV show, Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, actor Tasneem Sheikh is itching to get back on television. The actor is anxiously waiting for something interesting to come her way.
The TV star took a four-year hiatus when her daughter was born.
“I will be back soon. I have received many offers but couldn’t take it up as they didn’t suit me. I am looking for something interesting enough for me to leave my daughter and come on the set,” she told IANS.
She was last seen in Kis Desh Mein Hai Meraa Dil as Daljeet Maan. Tasneem was offered a role in the recent show Anamika too, but didn’t take it, as it involved a lot of night shoots.
“I was in love with the character but couldn’t take it up as it involved a lot of night shoots, which I knew I wouldn’t be able to manage with my daughter. Then it is not fair to take something up which you can’t fulfill,” she said.
The actor said there is no joy in the world like motherhood but at the same time it is a huge responsibility.
“Earlier when I was working, I used to be busy, but still had a personal life. But motherhood is a full time job. I like to spend all my time with my daughter,” she said.
During her sabbatical, Tasneem took up oil painting and has even held an exhibition recently.
