It's not easy dealing with one child, when you have two babies it's doubly hard. You can hear it in my cracked voice, see it in the bags under my eyes. I used to be a fresh-faced daisy once but how do you remain one when you're woken up at 7 am by one child climbing all over you and a half-hour later another one is kissing you. But I can't grumble because at the end of a long, tiring day, I have to admit that it's a beautiful experience.
It's A Wonderful Afterlife is an ode to motherhood. There's a different Gurinder Chadda behind the camera this time. One who's been touched by the sensibilities of a mother.
It was really difficult when the kids were younger. There were times when I was juggling to feed them at the same time with a bottle tucked under my chin. But as a mommy you learn to adapt. But I couldn't have done it without Paul who's a hands-on daddy. Bringing up our babies is like a partnership between parents.
