Deepika Singh Goyal who is on her maternity break is making most of the time with her son, Soham. Speaking about him, Deepika was quoted as saying, “Motherhood is a beautiful experience. Besides a biological transformation, I have learnt to empathise and sympathise with people around. It’s only when you become a mother, you realise how much your parents must have put in to bring you up. My parents were working, but they made sure to raise us well. They gave us their time. At times, I wonder if I would be able to do so much for Soham.” (Also Read: Deepika Singh Reveals Secrets Behind Her Post-Pregnancy Weight Loss, Lost 16 Kgs In 7 Months)
Deepika, who is a trained Odissi dancer, continued her passion for dance when she took a break from acting. She stated, “I would attend the dance classes even during my pregnancy. Although I couldn’t dance, I would just sit and watch others perform. I can’t stop pursuing some forms of art, or else I would be dissatisfied. Dance is also abhinay. Also, I didn’t want to put in long hours acting on a set before my son turned one. It was not worth leaving my son at home. Also, I wasn’t physically fit. I don’t care about the weight, but to stand and shoot for long hours after your body has undergone a change can be difficult. I have done that for almost five-and-a-half years without a break. Besides, I had the option of taking a break and embracing motherhood, so I made the most of it. Whatever I do in life, I give it my 100 per cent and this time, my child is my priority.” (Also Read: Anita Hassanandani-Rohit Reddy Do 'Griha Pravesh' Puja In Their New Home, Share Pics Of The House)
