The 43-year-old says, “I have actually been lazy and not open to work in the last few years. But the plan is to return to work in 2022 and do something interesting. I hope I can make announcements very soon.”

The pandemic, she says, put a lot of things on hold for her, as it did for everyone else. Sheadmits that the onset of Covid-19 terrified her.

“All I wanted was to be very careful for my entire family, to the point that I would call myself paranoid in the first year. Anyway I am not so much of a person who likes to go out and party a lot. I have a small group of friends and I like to meet my family,” she says.

That’s what has prompted her to finally be active in showbiz again, and change her “attitude towards work”. The actor continues, “I am completely gung-ho about doing a lot of work. I have started taking up events, otherwise I was quite closed down to doing any kind of shooting.”
