Shooting for a daily soap often leaves actors with barely any time to focus on their personal life . So, when the first season of Maddam Sir , in which she portrayed Haseena Malik, ended after a three-year run, Gulki Joshi seized the opportunity to travel. Not only that, she also found love.
The actress shares, “During this break, I had plenty of time to meet people and even found love (smiles).” She further adds, “I am dating someone who is not from the industry and I think that’s one of the reasons why we clicked. I am not ready to go public about it yet because it’s still new, aur nazar lag jaati hai .
” Gulki met her beau through a dating app. The actress, who has been part of TV shows such as Phir Subah Hogi , Nadaan Parindey Ghar Aaja, Piya Rangrezz , Paramavatar Shri Krishna, Ek Shringaar - Swabhiman, and Piyaa Albela, shares, “I joined a dating app despite some people advising me against it. I thought, kuchh kharaab hua toh bol doongi fake profile hai, bohot time hai life mein, kya hi hoga (laughs!).
Fortunately, the only guy I ended up liking was someone who didn’t follow TV and knew nothing about my professional life. He initially thought I was exaggerating about myself until I showed him a few of my episodes. I think that’s what drew me to him - he liked me as a person before the actor.
It’s been around nine months now. Earlier, it was about the newness, the adventure and the butterflies-in-the-stomach feeling. However, for the first time, I feel emotionally secure.
Ladkiyon ke liye sabse important wohi hota hai .” Teej Special: Yeh Rishta, Ghum Hai And Lead Stars Of Other Shows To Put Up Entertaining Dance Acts In a previous interview while talking about taking a short break from work after Maddam Sir concluded, she told us, “To feel myself again, I travelled for around five months and caught up on my social and personal life. You don’t have the luxury of time when you are shooting in Naigaon for three years consecutively.
It took me as long to get Haseena out of my system as it did to get into the character. So, it was a deliberate break from television. Now, I am back in the grind and in talks for a couple of new shows.
