Actress Pranitaa Pandit says that while there is a lot of fresh content today, the world of entertainment is such that you are often offered similar roles. While she is on the lookout for good work on TV, she turns similar roles down, she says.
“It’s been quite some time since I have explored and done some daily soap. So, it has been a conscious decision because I really want to explore and I am looking for some really good work. But yeah, a lot of repetitive work still comes which I’m saying no to and have to handle it with a heavy heart and just say that that’s not where I see myself in the next 10 years. OTT platforms and even our own Instagram handle has given us a lot of opportunity, which I’m really grateful for,” she says.
Meanwhile, the actress says that she makes sure to balance her work life and family life, as well as fitness well. “I do have a really balanced fitness regime and at the same time, work life. Of course, I don’t overdo anything in my life. I’m not a workaholic and I would just try to divide my days or weeks very sensibly. But I always prioritize my work and my family together. And fitness, of course, goes with family because when you have responsibility on your shoulders and you’re now a mother, it’s a game changer. You have to be fit to take it on and do it all. So, fitness, I take it very seriously and I think one needs to really sit down and plan and also push themselves every day to hit the gym or to do some physical activity every day. So even if it’s 45 minutes, you have to do it every day. Consistency is the key,” she says.
Ask her what is her dream at this stage, and she says, “My dream, I would say, is to do some fantastic work to be very successful in my own field in whatever I do. My dream is to help people. My dream is to connect with as many human beings as I can and just be a giver in life. And my goal is to be happy.”
