Anushka Sharma believes that she has become more confident and braver in her life ever since she embraced motherhood. Anushka, with her husband Virat, welcomed daughter Vamika in 2021. In a recent interview, the actor said that her priorities have changed ever since she became a mother and now, she doesn’t seek validation from outside
While speaking at an event for Puma in Bengaluru, Anushka said she and Virat have realised, that between the two of them, Vamika needs Anushka more. “I know my daughter is at this age that she needs a lot more of my time. Virat is a great father. He is very involved as a parent. But she is at that age, we have also seen that, she just needs me more. We recognise that. So, I have taken those steps,” the actor said.
The actor, who recently made her big debut at the Cannes Film Festival, said she is satisfied with the kind of life she is leading. She shared, “The way I am leading my life makes me happy and ultimately I don’t want to prove a point to anybody whether as an actor, as a public figure, as a mother, as a wife. I just want to do things that make me happy and make sense to me. I do things which feel right to me. I don’t look for validation outside of myself anymore.”

Anushka, who was last seen on screen in 2018, has decided that from now on, she will only do one film a year. “I enjoy acting but I don’t want to do too many films as much as I was doing earlier. I want to do one film a year, enjoy the process of acting which is what I like and balance my life out like the way I am, give time to family,” she said and added that even Virat takes out time for the family.

Anushka feels this courage has come to her after becoming a mother since she now also have to make decision for her little one. She expressed, “Motherhood has given me that because you have to trust yourself so much as a parent, as a mother, because you are taking decisions for someone who is so small and incapable in a lot of ways. So, you end up becoming very gutsy and you start trusting yourself a lot more. I think I am braver than I was before. I take decisions which I wouldn’t have earlier. I feel more fearless now.”
