Ridhima Pandit shares her views on motherhood and egg-freezing

You know it’s not easy hume bahut saare injections lene padte hai, there is a lot of bloating, there is a lot of weight gain jo kehte hai wo technically aisa kuch alarming nahi hai, its a lot of bloating, it goes away eventually. Jo aisi ek myth hai ki are aap mote ho jaate ho hormonal injection se, Nahi! But thoda sa ek crash aata hai hormone ka after the procedure is done etc (it is very physically taxing. You know it’s not easy; we have to take a lot of injections, there is a lot of bloating, and there is a lot of weight gain, which technically isn’t something alarming, it’s a lot of bloating that eventually goes away. There is this myth that you get fat from hormonal injections, No! But there is a bit of a hormone crash after the procedure is done, etc).”
Ridhima Pandit speaks up about her marriage plans
Later in the interview, the Bahu Hamari Rajnikant actress discusses her future marriage plans and her decision to freeze her eggs.

Regarding marriage, she says, “Mujhe pata nhi (I don’t know) whether I have marriage in my cards eventually in the future, it all depends on probably if I get the right partner. A lot of women wish to do it alone, probably from a few years. I might want to do it alone; I might not want to do it alone. But at least I am stress-free now. I have done my part biologically.” She mentions taking care of that aspect of her life and currently living stress-free. The Khatron Ke Khiladi 9 second runner-up is proud that people have decided to undergo this procedure after reading her articles. She further shares that egg freezing is now covered under insurance.
