Dipika Kakar QUITS Acting? Actress Issues Clarification, ‘People Misunderstood My Comments, There Is Nothing Like That’
‘Sasural Simar Ka’ fame actress Dipika Kakar, who is pregnant with her first child, recently made headlines after in an interview she stated she now wants to live her life as a housewife and a mother.  She mentioned that she has told her husband Shoaib that she does not want to work now and thus wants to quit acting. Soon after this, media portals were flooded with stories claiming Dipika has quit the TV industry. Now, the mother-to-be has issued a clarification where she said people misunderstood her comments.

Speaking with Etimes, Dipika stated she has always craved to live a life as a housewife, but that doesn't mean she is not interested to work ever again. She was quoted as saying, “I just came across this news of me quitting acting as a career. People misunderstood my comments from my previous interview that I've given up acting. So I would just like to clarify there is nothing like that. I have always craved to live a life of a housewife (mujhe humesha se housewife banana tha). Shoaib would go to office and I would make breakfast for him and take care of the house. But that doesn't mean that I don't want to work ever again.” ALSO READ: WHAT!

She added she would be taking a break for a few years after she gives birth to her baby so that she would give the child her complete time. However, Kakar explained that if a good role or project comes her way, she would take it up.

Earlier, in an interview with Telly Chakkar, Dipika had said, “I am enjoying this phase of pregnancy and welcoming our first child. The excitement is on another level. I started working at a very young age and continued for about 10 – 15 years at a stretch. As my pregnancy journey began, I told Shoaib that I don't want to work and want to quit acting. I want to live a life as a housewife and mother.” This statement went viral in no time and left fans shocked.

For the unversed, Dipika and Shoaib got married in 2018 after dating for several years in an intimate ceremony. The couple announced expecting their first child earlier in January.
