,
Pooja Banerjee
is gearing up to embrace motherhood for the second time.
Talking exclusively to IANS, Pooja shared that she is enjoying a different kind of motherhood for the second time.
Asked about her
second pregnancy
, she told IANS, "It feels that 24 hours is less this time. My hands are so full this time even when I'm not in Mumbai or I'm not working as an actress but the time literally flies. I'm so busy with Sana, her schedule, and my Studio work that I literally think where does my time go? It does get a little tiring after a point since I had extensive traveling in this pregnancy. Yet I'm enjoying a different kind of motherhood for the second time and I'm looking forward to telling stories to my kids."
Pooja revealed that she always wanted to give her firstborn a sibling as she believes that it's the biggest gift you can give a child. "Thankfully Sandeep (husband) was also on the same page. I've grown up with two brothers so I know the life with a sibling.", she stated.
Pooja was also asked when she is expected to return to the screen post-delivery. Reacting to this, she disclosed, "Of course. It all depends upon my health and my kid's needs. I wouldn't want to exert myself. So I'll take it easy and see what kind of opportunities come my way."
Sharing what it has been like shifting to New Delhi, the actress revealed, "It's different than Mumbai obviously. It's a joint family here so lots of family members take care of the kids and their always a different kind of celebrations happening. But more than anything else, you like the fact that there is more space in here than in Mumbai."
Spilling the beans about her plans to
return to Mumbai
, Pooja said, "I do miss Mumbai but it's more like I do miss being in front of the camera and acting. I don't really miss the traffic, the hustle, or the congestion. I'm actually in a happy space that I'm getting a larger space for my child to grow, play, and learn."

Mohammed Shami Called 'Womaniser' By Estranged Wife, Accused Of 'Ignoring' Daughter
Indian cricket team fast bowler Mohammed Shami once again found himself in the headlines for the wrong reasons as he was attacked by his estranged wife Hasin Jahan on social media. Jahan alleged that Shami did not want their daughter Ayra to be admitted to a good school. However, she revealed that their daughter secured a place in an international school. Jahan went on to call Shami a 'womaniser' and further alleged that the pacer prioritised the children of his girlfriends and gave them expensive gifts while completely ignoring Ayra and not paying for her school or education. 'The enemies did not want my daughter to get admission in a good school, but Allah foiled their plans, and she has secured admission to a very good international school," she posted on Instagram. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Haseen Jahan (@hasinjahanofficial) 'The father of my daughter, despite being a billionaire, is playing with her life because of womanizing, while educating his mistress's children in elite schools. He spends lakhs on business class flights for some mistresses but claims he has no money for his own daughter's education," she added. Earlier, Jahan said that Calcutta High Court directions to the Indian pacer to pay her and daughter a monthly alimony of Rs 4 lakh as maintenance is a "victory" for her after "a long battle". Calcutta High Court directed Shami to pay a monthly alimony of Rs 4 lakh as maintenance. Jahan will have to be paid Rs 1.50 lakh per month, while the daughter will get Rs 2.50 lakh per month. Jahan, a former model, married Mohammed Shami in 2014. The couple had a daughter in 2015. Mohammed Shami and Hasin Jahan separated in 2018 after she accused him of domestic violence. "I am thankful to God that I finally got victory after fighting such a long battle... Now I will be able to give my daughter a good education and maintain her life easily... If you see the life Shami leads, the status he maintains, his earnings, this amount is nothing in comparison to that... We had demanded Rs 10 lakhs from the court around seven years ago. Since then, Shami's income and inflation have both increased," Hasin Jahan said. "The status with which he leads his life, my daughter and I also have the right to maintain the same status," she added. Jahan's advocate Imtiaz Ahmed confirmed that Shami will be required to pay a monthly alimony of Rs 4 lakh as maintenance to Jahan and said there is a high chance the maintenance might be upgraded to Rs 6 lakh.
