Harbhajan Singh and Geeta Basra had begun their forever journey on October 29, 2015, in a big fat Punjabi wedding after a long courtship period. The who’s who of cricket, business, political and glamour world had attended their lavish wedding reception. On July 27, 2016, Harbhajan and Geeta had embraced parenthood for the first time and had welcomed their baby girl, Hinaya. And since then, their lives have been revolving around their little angel, Hinaya.
In an interview with Pinkvilla, Geeta revealed the reason behind discontinuing acting post her marriage. Talking about the same she shared, “I have grown up with a working mum, who has raised her family so well... Whatever we have today is because of her. I take that as my inspiration. I don't think women should give up on any of their passions.”
She also stated that discontinuing acting was her personal choice as she wanted to spend every moment with her little girl, Hinaya. Geeta revealed that enjoying every moment of motherhood was her priority and said, “Being a mother is the most rewarding and fulfilling role I've ever had in my life. I've loved every moment being with Hinaya. It was a personal choice that I didn't want to work... I was enjoying motherhood so much, and enjoying her milestones, and making sure that I'm there for every single moment of hers -- her first walk, her first laugh, her first word.”
