Actor and mother-to-be Anushka Sharma says she will be back shooting once she delivers her first child.

“Being on the set brings me a lot of joy and I’m going to be shooting continuously for the next few days once I deliver my first child and establish a system at home that ensures me to balance my child, my home and my professional life. I intend to keep working for as long as I live because acting truly makes me happy,” she said.

Anushka, who is currently shooting for endorsements after creating a protective, full-proof bio-bubble with her staff, said, “It’s great being on the set & meeting my entire team, soaking in the madness of shoots.”

‘Remembering Kal Ho Naa Ho as it completes 17 years. A film that made me laugh and cry in a heartbeat. It was an experience that went beyond words. This was probably one of my best-written films. Thank you to the entire cast and crew for making this film so memorable. So I’d say, aaj zindagi jee lo, kya pata kal ho naa ho?’

Not surprised by COVID-19: Jude

Actor Jude Law says he was not shocked by the COVID-19 pandemic as he already feared the possibility of a global health crisis after speaking to experts on the set of his 2011 release, Contagion.

“When 2020 started, and we heard about what was initially happening in China, what fast became apparent around the world, it rang alarm bells. Unfortunately, I wasn’t hugely surprised,” Law said.

Law essayed Alan Krumwiede in the thriller, and said that there was a feeling “this was going to happen” as they worked in the film.
