World Environment Day is a reminder to care for our planet: Sheetal Maulik
Sheetal Maulik, TV actress who is essaying the role of Priya in Meri Bhavya Life feels the need for unity to protect nature and build a cleaner, greener future because "a healthy Earth begins with us," she says, adding, " World Environment Day is observed on June 5, serving as a reminder for all of us to care for our planet." She adds, "Every small step we take makes a big difference. We need to save the environment because it's the foundation of life on Earth, providing essential resources like air, water and food. However, human activities are degrading the environment at an alarming rate, threatening our very existence." Sheetal says that even simple actions can make a significant difference. "For instance, ditching plastic bottles and opting for reusable ones can reduce plastic waste and pollution. Similarly, using public transport, carpooling, or cycling can decrease air pollution and carbon emissions ," she says. Sheetal, who has worked in shows like Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin, Barsatein – Mausam Pyaar Ka, Suhaagan, Deewaniyat says, "Reducing meat consumption, using energy-efficient appliances, and recycling can also contribute to environmental conservation. By incorporating these habits into our daily lives, we can collectively mitigate the damage and work towards a more sustainable future." Shifting the onus on human beings to understand the issue, she says, "People fail to understand that our body's internal environment is as important as is the external. So I truly believe that meditation and being with oneself for at least 10 mins a day can make us better thinkers and it will only contribute to the outer world."

Sheetal Maulik: Jewellery reflects your personality; that's why I started designing my own
In the current unpredictable entertainment industry, everyone wants to explore alternate sources of income. Television actress Sheetal Maulik, currently seen in Meri Bhavya Life, decided to turn her creative instincts into a side business of designing and making jewellery. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Sheetal began this journey during the COVID-19 lockdown, thanks to a nudge from her mother-in-law. Sheetal recalls, 'My daughter was very young at that time, and I wasn't working much then. There weren't many shows that were being shot. So my mother-in-law suggested I keep myself busy and start something of my own. That's when I thought of this idea, and she even connected me with people in Calcutta who helped me with materials and designs. She really encouraged me to do this.' The actress further adds, 'Being a woman, I've always loved jewellery. But I could never find exactly what I wanted to wear, so I thought — why not design it myself?' she says. 'I learned how to make jewellery from the internet. With a little creativity and some guidance, I figured it out. Once I started wearing them, my friends began asking for pieces too.' A passion turned into a business for the actress. She shares, 'Orders started coming in, and I earned a good amount. Though acting takes most of my time now, I still get a lot of orders. It's not just craft, it's an emotion. It reflects your personality. When you wear something you made, it feels special.'
