Poonam resumes shooting (mumbaimirror)
Shubhra of Saat Phere is back to work after a spell of jaundice
Poonam Gulati
Poonam Gulati has fully recovered from jaundice and has resumed shooting. Shubhra of Zee's Saat Phere contracted jaundice almost a month ago. "I don't know how and when I got jaundice. One can just keep guessing as one can't really trace how one gets infected. I didn't think too much about it because ailments are a part and parcel of our lives these days," says Poonam.
Poonam spent some time in a hospital too. But that did not keep her away from her commitments and she says, "On two occasions, I shot for Saat Phere. My doctor doesn't know about it. I sneaked out of the hospital telling the doctor that I had to go for an urgent photo shoot. He believed me and let me go although the nurses knew what I was up to."
Poonam claims to be a workaholic and says that nothing can keep her away from work for long, "I am used to a hectic life. I find it more stressful to sit at home and do nothing. I wanted to be engaged in work so I reported to shoots. And it wasn't that pressurising on the sets. The unit of Saat Phere is like an extended family to me. I would feel cheerful on seeing my colleagues. They took very good care of me when on the sets."
She is feeling much better now. "Except for my eyes, which still look yellow, I am fine. I feel a lot more energetic. It is just a matter of time before I become completely alright," she adds.
In the meanwhile, Saat Phere's director has been changed for the second time.
A source says that Rajan Shahi who had replaced Rakesh Sarang, asked the producer to relieve him from his duties. Vijay Pandey has taken over from where Shahi left.
