Actor Zainab Shaikh is happy that makers in the entertainment industry are quickly bouncing back on the work front.
The IndiaтАЩs Most Sansanikhej Kahaniya actor says, тАЬA lot of work is happening now тАФ training, gym, online-sessions, auditions, social media work and commercials. I have already given an audition for a web-series, and I am waiting for a positive revert from them. It was supposed to happen before, but then lockdown happened. Kaam karna (working) is really important and thankfully the government allowed us to shoot.тАЭ
She did not expect shoots to restart so soon. тАЬWith the kind of second wave we witnessed in April and May, I thought that deferment of work will continue for a long time. But thankfully things are unlocking fast, and we are back on the shoot mode. ItтАЩs not just about actors but it was vital for the whole lot of crew members and people externally associated with the shoots. It was imperative to get back to work for the industry and its people.тАЭ
The actor says that she was shooting for a web-series in Mumbai which went on hold.
тАЬI have already shot some commercials and I expected them to be launched by now, but itтАЩs all held up. You really feel sad when your completed work does not get to see the release for a long time. Most of them are stuck in post-production and for those that are complete, people are still reconsidering the timing of the release as the mood of audience is not too great.тАЭ
Sharing more about herself Zainab says, тАЬI am from North India and was born in Bokaro, but I am a cosmopolitan. IтАЩm half-Bihari and half-Bengali. I have majorly lived in Kolkata, Hazaribagh, Pune, Africa and many other places but finally settled in Mumbai. I have a connect with Lucknow and UP due to my motherтАЩs side and its culture. I have been there with my parents but long back. Also, in my show, I played a Delhi-girl.тАЭ
