Megha Sharma: Adults also need summer breaks

Actress Megha Sharma says that while it might not always be possible, everyone likes to take breaks to rejuvenate and relax. She adds that in today’s professional work, this becomes challenging.

Summers are here, and not only kids but even adults need summer breaks. But long summer breaks are a big question mark. Everyone definitely dreams of summer vacations and long holidays, but work schedule and life come in the way,” she says.

She adds, “Professional lives have changed. We also have a fear somewhere that we are not giving enough. If we talk about long breaks, it is not good for an actor if we ask for a 10-day leave. This is not possible in a daily soap. There is also a fear that taking a long vacation might not seem justified. Of course, if you are getting married or are pregnant, that’s a different thing.”

She adds that breaks are very important, even if they are short. “I definitely love taking breaks from work whenever I get time. On such days, I do my personal work, my self-care and self-pampering. I like spending time at home a lot because I feel like I hardly get to do that. I'm a very homely person and I like spending time at home, listening to music, dancing,” she says.
