Kumkum Bhagya Fame Pooja Banerjee And Husband Sandeep Sejwal To Welcome Their First Baby In This Month Of 2022

Pooja Banerjee is currently seen in Kumkum Bhagya. The recent news which has taken over the internet is her news that she is pregnant. She is in her second trimester and the baby is due in March next year. The actress tells that she and her husband, Sandeep Sejwal, an Olympic swimmer, had planned to go the family way last year. However, little did the couple know that the good news would come their way unexpectedly.

Pooja shared that Sandeep and the actress wanted to conceive in 2020, but we put the plan on hold after she met with an accident in 2019 (on Nach Baliye). However, when the second lockdown was implemented, she realised ki yeh toh chalta hi rahega. They decided not to delay it because they didn’t want to become parents at a later stage. But they thought of having a baby next year since she was shooting for the show away from home for almost two months due to restrictions imposed in Maharashtra and travelling.

She also shared how she learnt about her pregnancy. Pooja felt that something was not right. So, one day before leaving for the shoot, she went for a blood test. Around 4 pm, she got the report stating that she was pregnant. She asked Sandeep to pick her up that day, as she didn’t want to break the news over a phone call. He did a happy dance when he learnt about it (laughs!). Both of them want to have a daughter. She wants to dress her and make her wear nice swimming costumes.

Speaking of her work she said that she will go with the flow. Initially, she had some difficulty because of fatigue and morning sickness. So, she approached the makers with an option to release her if it was getting difficult for them, as she was anyway planning to quit the show in a couple of months. They could have replaced her. However, they told Pooja that they wanted her on the show and asked her, ‘ Aap delivery ke kitne din ke baad resume karoge? (laughs!)’ What happens in the future needs to be figured out, but there is still time for it. The unit has been considerate and working around her requirements and comfort. She wishes everybody would do that. Working women, who wish to go the family way, should be encouraged to do it.

Pooja continues to follow her routine, especially swimming twice a week. She says, Each body reacts differently to pregnancy. Aap jo cheez karte aa rahe ho agar aap woh karte rahoge toh aapko koi problem nahi hogi unless your doctors suggest otherwise. She is swimming, working and cooking; these are three things she loves doing the most. Fortunately, she doesn’t have any aversions.
