Television actress Anagha Bhosale who played Nandini in Star Plus’ show Anupamaa has taken a break from showbiz. Anagha had recently quit Anupamaa. In an interview with Times of India, she told that after she entered the industry, she realised it was opposite as what she expected. She said that there is “politics, unhealthy competition, the race to look good and reed-thin all the time” in showbiz. Anagha, is a spiritual person and she feels that this industry is full of hypocrisy. She added, “I couldn’t relate to the double standards in showbiz and the pressure to be something that you are not. It is filled with hypocrisy. I want to pursue my religious beliefs and attain a sense of peace and contentment in my life.”
She is currently at her hometown in Pune and wants to pursue spiritual journey. She is grateful for the love Nandini got. Anagha also said that she will return if Rajan Shahi, the producer of Anupamaa calls her back. But she will eventually “want to quit acting”.
Anagha’s character of Nandini was very much loved by audience. Post her exit from the show, fans requested her to come back on the show. She played Samar’s love interest in the show. The makers didn’t replace her with another actor, but they ended her character.
