Neha Dhupia

It's not just after her first baby Mehr's birth in November 2018, that Neha got back to Roadies in just 45 days but also right after her second baby's birth in October, 2021, that she was up and about. Just 6 days after her baby's arrival, Neha shared on her social media a video where she could be seen reading her script before the shot. She wrote alongside, ''6 days post our baby was born I tried inching back to a bit of work … of course #workfromhome it was as no part of me mentally, emotionally or physically was ready to be away from him or step out. Took two hours off but it was not an uninterrupted one in front of the camera. With sweet cries of hunger and me trying to find my balance too, he and I pulled through … baby steps but we'll get there soon. Just happy to be back up on my feet." (Photo: Instagram)

Even before her baby boy's arrival, the actress has shared with us, "I believe motherhood should not stop a woman from achieving what she wants in life. I feel I am stronger now and more driven towards my dream. Hats off to all the women who are coming out and breaking all the stereotypes and celebrating marriage and motherhood. I really want the trend to go on because a woman doesn't become less desirable if she gets married or delivers a baby." (Photo: Instagram)
