Shilpa Agnihotri, who is seen playing Kaikeyi on Shrimad Ramayan, recently talked about how it was difficult for her to do the show, leaving behind her toddler daughter at home.
Shilpa Agnihotri had been off the radar for a brief time before making a comeback with the mythological saga, Shrimad Ramayan. The talented actress is winning praise for her portrayal of Kaikeyi on the show. However, taking the decision to return to TV was not easy for Shilpa, who is also now a mother to 14-month-old, Ishaani Kanu Agnihotri. In an interaction with Etimes TV, the actress spoke about her experience on the sets of the show.

Discussing how it was a tough call to leave her daughter behind and go for shoots, Shilpa Agnihotri said that initially, she used to cry a lot missing her daughter on the sets. She also shared that after the narration, she said yes to the show only because of her husband, Apurva Agnihotri. The Shrimad Ramayan actress stated, “When I came home and narrated to my husband and told him that the makers would be going into Kaikeyi’s past and the show will be through her perspective, he asked me to say yes to the show. He told me don’t worry I’m there. He told me that he is going to leave everything and would shift there and be with her."

Further, she also added how her husband, Apurva Agnihotri assured her that at least one of them would always be there with their little one and added, "It was three months and my husband was in Umbergaon every single day with us. He would keep doing video calls and making me speak to her. It doesn’t get better than this when you have such a strong and supportive husband."
Furthermore, the Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi actress shared how she ended up signing Shrimad Ramayan. She quoted, “I would say that God arm-twisted and got me to do this show. I declined the offer but Siddharth Kumar Tewary kept pushing me to take this up in times when there are girls prettier, more talented and good-looking than me. They had everything going for them and had no reason to chase me the way they did. Eventually, I had to accept it as God’s decision for me.”
Shrimad Ramayan has received a tremendous response from the audience. The show also stars Sujay Reu, Prachi Bansal, and Nikitin Dheer among others. It airs every Mon-Fri at 9 pm on Sony Entertainment Television.
