Actress Shilpa Shetty, mother of three-month-old son Viaan, says she is enjoying motherhood and is not thinking about getting back to films right now.
"Right now, I am a full-time mother and completely enjoying it. I have no time for films. I am on a sabbatical for I don't know how long. Motherhood is such an amazing experience that everything else takes a back seat," said Shilpa.
Shilpa, who is married to businessman Raj Kundra, became a mother May 21. She was here Tuesday, at an event to promote skin-care line Olay. This was her first public appearance post-delivery.
Talking about the changes the baby has brought to her life, she said: "Life has changed from being a woman to a mother but it is beautiful."
But coming back to shape post-pregnancy brings a lot of stress for any lady, says the 37-year-old whose baby fat was evident in a loose white and black outfit.
"There are surely lot of insecurities about your weight, skin and the way you look post-pregnancy. But all this becomes a lot easy when you have good and right advice.
"There are pressures on every woman but being a celebrity when we are scrutinised every time for everything, the pressure surely increases. But I haven't started losing weight because it is not on my priority list right now. It is my baby and all that is important for him that tops the list," she said.
Weight loss is more time consuming compared to skin care.
"Losing weight and being in shape requires a lot of hard work, a lot of time, a balanced diet. But when it comes to skin care, it is far easier. I think less is more when it comes to skin. The lesser you do it, the better it looks. That has always been my mantra.
"We are in a time and age when people don't want to see something fake or too overly done up. If you have to look good, you should have good and healthy skin," said the actress, who turns to her mother when it comes to taking any beauty and health tips.

You are clearly not in the right state of your mind if that picture has changed your opinion, I don't see a reason why shilpa will copy aishwarya, aishwarya was not and still is not a trend setter and a fashion forward person...what aishwarya is wearing in this picture and how abhisheck is hanging his bag is very common, I am sure there a snaps of hollywood couples like this so are you going to say that aishwarya is coping them, and having a baby at 38, giving priority to career is a hollywood thing...does it mean ash is coping hollywood film and pop stars?? if you spot the diffrences of this pictures there are 100 differences so how can you say they are coping aishwarya...get a life ! and excuse my English!
@Voiceswriter
I guess both these ladies are 'blessed' with husbands who like carry around murses! I can't get over how bad Abhishek's styling is in that picture, atleast dress properly for the gorgeous woman whose on your arm!
@voicewriter
Move on buddy...Ash is old n time to move on....just like sridevi n madhuri....even Ash is old ..

conked out
Please stop bringing Ash into the picture.....Ash is old and retired :) Move on voicewriter!

This is one copycat of Aishwariya right from wedding planning to baby planning to baby shower to baby delivery and now to post pregnancy fat!!!! She has closely shadowed Aishwarya's path and tried to play up one womanupship.."What she can do ..I can do better!!" She's even mouthing the same dialogues Ash said in Cannes.....My prediction for her next move, few months down the line she will lose all her weight and announce to all she had lost her weight because her darling son has kept her on her toes and kept her very busy.....
Get a life lady..and a personality of your own!!!
Joke of the century: she hasn't been in films in ages and she's yapping about taking a break...ha ha ha
You and your fame hungry hubby are so irrelevant....only your PR keeping you in the news, nobody''s interested in you.
What a COINCIDENCE!
who the hell even cares... if she looses weight or not... plzzzzz.... she is no AISHWARYA RAI.....!!!!
>>Is it a tulu thing to not want to lose weight after pregnancy?
- Are you serious? It's ONLY been 3 months since Shilpa had her baby . At least wait for 8-12 months before nagging someone about their post-baby weight. Do you expect her to go on a crash diet while she's (probably) still B-Fing ?
God bless her. Pushing 40 and still a wannabe. Get your own personality, Shilpa.

Thats IGNORANCE!!1 cos both are from the BUNT caste of Mangalore and South Indian brides dressup like that.I did the same for my wedding the same way.If a Punjabi repeats that ok and when we do thats stalking.Dont we have a background and life of ours.
I have seen a lot of Pak weddings and Indian weddings duping the mehndi dressing and ornaments of Aish.
Just cos an another actress from ur community wore ...the other cant wear it? Now Deepika will wed .What should she wear? LUNGI ?
Come on guys ....a little knowledge abt ur fellow men's culture will hep us understand each other better
Shilpa and Aishwarya are from the same part of India so I think all brides traditionally dress like that there, we can't fault her for that. Many people have said in the past that she apes Aish but I never started believing it until I saw this picture.

Is it a tulu thing to not want to lose weight after pregnancy?
.............
Exactly what I was thinking too....lol!
Hope Ash and Shilpa get pregnant again so they can go on another sabbatical :D
Less is more.. something not overly done up??? coming from a fully done up woman.. what a ironical statement after she had so many jobs on her face!! Gosh and sabbatical? when was she in movies last? Gosh one fake after the other!!
Somehow I find this post as in Shilpa's dialogues funny lol.
Good thought but coming from her that too in a OLAY (skin related) event, makes it laughable somehow. no offense to her fans. lol
I have noticed in last few years, Shilpa copies Aishwarya in many ways. her styling, wedding attire they wore, and now this. go away nobody is interested Mrs Kundra
VOICEWRITER:
I think Ash has retired!!!! lol
Thanks Shilpa, and Ash spare us all from your acting
Totally agree with PinkVilla Boy : Thank you Shilpa.
Please enjoy your baby and your husband's wealth and spare us from your acting.

"people don't want to see something fake or too overly done up. If you have to look good, you should have good and healthy skin," said the actress. This from a woman who's always walked around with a 20 kilo makeup mask, 2nd only to ash rai in terms of the amount of makeup she wears.
No time for films, says Shilpa
Thank You Shilpa
Well said...lady!!
she looks fab....loving masaba dress for the first time...
I thought she retired?
