MUMBAI: It was reported a while ago that actress Ekta Sharma had taken up a job at a call centre, since she was not getting new offers in the acting space. The actress is known for her roles in Kkusum, Kis Desh Mein Hai Meraa Dil and Bepanah Pyaar. But the latest development about the actress is that she is making a return to acting. She will be returning for the show Mann Sundar, in which she essays the role of a mother.

The actress is resuming shoot after almost two years, and it was a very different experience for Ekta. She shares, “Day one on the set made me so happy. Watching the creative team, co-actors, technicians, cameras... everything made me feel like I had come back home. I have been missing this so badly.” Talking about whether she would be returning to her call centre job or not, she says, “Acting is my first love and I was not happy working at the call centre. Since I had no choice, I had to join it. After working there for almost a year, I was planning to join another company. I resigned from the call centre in the last week of September and when I was almost ready to join another company, I got a call from the team of Mann Sundar. Actually, I had auditioned for a role and had forgotten about it. When I got the call, I was so happy. Finally, I am doing what I loved the most.”

Ekta is playing Shivanshi Das’s mother, who is the antagonist of the show. Playing a mother to a grown-up doesn't bother Ekta. She says, “I have done it earlier in Bepanah Pyaar. Even playing a negative role does not bother me. I may not relate to a character, but yes when you portray such a character you should learn what never to do in life and also learn to differentiate between good and bad.” Sharing more about her role, she adds, “I come to this family as I want my daughter Anchal to get married to the hero, and want his wife to get out of the house. Anchal and I keep planning and plotting against her.”
