Gouri Tonnk: I'm back on my fitness journey
Gouri Tonnk, known for her role in 'Deewaniyat,' is currently on a break, prioritising her health and family after a series of back-to-back shows.
Actress Gouri Tonnk, who was last seen playing Sakshi Chaudhary in Deewaniyat, is currently taking a break from the screen to focus on health and home.
'I did three shows back-to-back—
Kamnaa
,
Teri Meri Dooriyaan
, and
Deewaniyat
, which wrapped up in January this year,' Gouri shared. 'For
Deewaniyat
, I had to put on around 6-7 kilos to bring authenticity to the character.
Now I'm back on my fitness journey. I've been keeping a check on my diet and maintaining a consistent workout routine.'
While she's not signed on to a new project just yet, Gouri is using this time to reconnect with her family. 'Till I take up a new show when I get something interesting. But meanwhile, I'm enjoying being at home with my kids and making time for myself. I recently took a short holiday too—it's been refreshing,' she added.
Looking ahead, the actress is eager to take on more complex and challenging roles. 'I'm ready to get back to work again. I'm hoping for something more promising and challenging than what I've done so far. I wish something like Anupamaa comes my way—or even a completely dark, negative character. I want to push my limits as an actor.'
With her birthday around the corner, Gouri is in high spirits. 'This is my birthday month, and I want to live every moment to the fullest. I'm feeling positive, grateful, and excited about what's next.'

Exclusive - Zalak Desai on Anupamaa completing five years: Not too many shows even make it to a year
Completing five years is a big achievement, says actress Zalak Desai who plays the role of khyati, celebrates her show Anupamaa on completing half a decade. She adds that there are not too many shows that make it that far today. 'It feels wonderful to be a part of such a successful and long-running show because, as you know, in the current scenario on TV, not too many shows even make it to a year. So, completing five years, I think, is a big achievement, and I'm really grateful and happy to be a part of this show,' she says. The show has seen the good, the bad and the worst in Anupama's life. This has helped people relate to the show, she says, adding, 'I think from all the scenes that I've been doing since the time I joined, one of the biggest takeaways for me has been Anupama's support for other women around her. I personally also strongly believe in this phrase and this statement, which is so powerful that for women, this definitely should be the case. It's something that we must be seeing in society, in our homes, and with the people around us.' Zalak says that the show has taught us a lot, 'I think it's very important because, in the olden days, I saw that women didn't really support or stand up or speak up or fight for other women. In fact, they were often the ones who put other women down. So, I love the fact that Anupama has been supportive of everyone around her—her own family or even the Kothari family, for that matter, when it comes to Khyati and Pratna. Maybe somewhere she might support Meeta also at some point in time. She has been very supportive of her daughter-in-law Kinjal, her daughters Rahi and Mahi, as well as everyone. So yes, I think that's something I really love about Anupama.' Sagar Parekh on playing Samar for almost 2 years in Anupamaa: It was a dream come true for me
