Cosmo: What were you doing right before this interview?
Sonam Kapoor Ahuja: “I just finished reading a bedtime story to Vayu.”
C: How did you strike a balance between work and personal life during your pregnancy?
SKA: “I had already begun working on a few projects before Anand and I discovered that we were pregnant. I ensured that I fulfilled all my commitments that were due, since I knew that in my new phase of life, I would be just available to my son as a mother. And if that meant that acting would take a backseat for a bit, so be it... I will never stop acting completely, but I wanted to be present during my transition to motherhood.”
C: And were there any projects you couldn’t finish?
SKA: “I have two projects that are pending. I’ll begin working on them soon. After much contemplation, I took a six-month break post my pregnancy before resuming work. I have been working since I was 20-years-old, and I believe it was a well-earned break. I also worked during the lockdown and shot a crime thriller film produced by Sujoy Ghosh, titled Blind. Its rights were picked up by a streaming platform.”
C: Tell us about how motherhood changed you...
