Aafter shooting non-stop for over two years, the husband-wife duo Shilpa and Apoorva Agnihotri is making the most of their break. Ever since Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahi wrapped up, Apoorva is in no mood to take up any more assignments that need him to follow a set schedule.

Just imagine, he even refuses to do major work-outs as he ll have to follow a diet, says Shilpa. She admits that her husband is extremely media-shy. It s not that he is unsociable but he prefers to be away from the spotlight. He doesn t want to be written about and I think people must respect that, says Shilpa.

After Jassi... Apoorva has been busy reading and watching soccer. We re getting to spend more with each other and that s most exciting. Also, we get to read, cook and spend time with our moms, says Shilpa. It was also a period of leisure for Shilpa as she wasn t required to star in Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi after the leap.

But it seems as if this time-out in togetherness is soon coming to an end. The buzz is that Shilpa and Apoorva have received an offer to play the romantic lead in a serial.

The actress is rather tight-lipped and says, News in this industry travels fast. It s true, we ve been offered to do a show together. We read the script and in all probability we ll be doing the show, she says. It s a family drama. I can t divulge more details. I m superstitious about such things. There s many a slip between the cup and the lip. Once things are finalised I ll talk extensively. Till then, I m keeping my fingers crossed and hoping the deal doesn t fall through. It will be great working with Apoorva again.

Apart from Nach Baliye, the two also worked together in Jassi... where Saklani had a guest appearance.
