Actor Anjana Sukhani returns to the big screen with "Good Newwz" after a two year hiatus and says she is back with renewed energy.
After featuring in films like "Salaam-e-Ishq", "Golmaal Returns" and "Shaandar", the actor took a break from the industry when she was diagnosed with depression.
Anjana says her time away from the industry helped her gain the strength "to revive what was already there and strengthen what I lacked."
"If I walk past somebody, I want them to know my body of work. At the end of it, what matters is the impact you had and the weightage your work carried. What I'm probably striving for is that respect."
The actor says the last decade, since her debut in mid-2000s, has taught her that she needs to bring "something new to the table."
"The gap was voluntary, so it didn't crush me. But at the same time the world doesn't stop. You've to learn to work under the direction to get that shade under the sun. 'Good Newwz' is a baby step towards that. It's just the beginning."
"To be a little more interested in other people's lives as well. Go out, speak to them, network, which I wasn't used to. Some professions are purely based on networking, this is partially based on it."
