Rajshree Thakur on striking balance between family and work

Rajshree Thakur has always impressed audiences with her versatility. The actress, who became a household name across the country with ZEE TV’s Saat Phere, was last seen in Shaadi Mubarak.

However, she had to quit the show halfway due to hectic schedule and long working hours. The actress is now gearing up for the launch of her new show Apnapan....Badalte Rishton Ka Bandhan.

Talking to a publication, Thakur said that since working hours are better now, she is able to strike a balance between her personal and professional life.

“When I was doing Shaadi Mubarak, the pandemic had struck, and my daughter was much younger. The schedule was hectic and I did not have proper house help. I had to quit the show because my family needed me. However, now, things are smoother and I am able to balance family and work,” she told the publication.

Talking further about long working hours on TV, she added, “Earlier it used to be very hectic and there were no fixed working hours. Sometimes, you had to put in more time because things weren't as systematic. But, in the last one or two years, I have seen that there is a proper system in place, and it is much more organised when I go to shoot on the set. I have always been particular that my family life should not suffer. When work hours are fixed, I can focus on my work as well as my family. It is important that I give equal time to both."

Apnapan....Badalte Rishton Ka Bandhan will see Rajshree Thakur opposite Cezanne Khan.
