MUMBAI: Shweta Tiwari has been entertaining the audience with her acting chops. She has been part of both fiction and non-fiction projects and enjoys a huge fan following.

The talented diva has participated in almost every reality show, including Bigg Boss and Nach Baliye. So, when she was offered Fear Factor: Khatron Ki Khiladi, she lapped it up. Talking about the same, she told Times of India, “I have participated in every reality show possible. Khatron Ke Khiladi is a unique show in which you face your fears and attempt stunts that you don’t in your normal life. So, I decided to participate in it because of the element of adventure. Also, my daughter told me that if I didn’t take it up now, it would be too late for me to participate in this show in the future.”

Shweta Tiwari is shooting for the show in Cape Town, away from her children, Palak and Reyansh. Further, she shared with the daily that she misses them a lot and they are in constant touch with each other virtually. “At night, we sleep with our video calling app switched on so that we can see each other every time we wake up. We talk at every opportunity. I talk to my daughter before every stunt and after it to tell her how I have fared. My son wants me to get him a hippopotamus, which he calls ‘hippomonatus’ from South Africa to India for him. So, if in an episode I get to meet a hippopotamus, I am going to take him home, because my son wants it (laughs!).” While many are struggling to find work, Shweta feels fortunate to be getting work during these challenging times. She said, “It has indeed been a difficult time for all of us.”

“While I am grateful for the quality time spent with my children and family, I realised ki kaam karte rehna kitna important hai. Agar kaam ruk jaaye toh sab kuch ruk jaata hai. Your income may stop, but expenses don’t. You have to pay the EMIs and other expenses. So, it was very important to work. I thank my stars that today I have work and I can look after my kids,” added the actress. Shweta Tiwari also shared with the daily that post Khatron Ke Khiladi she plans to get back to the fiction genre provided the concept is good and shows her in a never-seen-before avatar.
