In the year 2018, the young lady gave it all up and moved to their home in the hills fulfilling with her ailing mother’s last wish. Once here, Akangsha nursed her mother for six months, unfortunately my mother did not live to see my return to television, but I feel her constant presence and blessings in all that I undertake, she tells us. Adding “It was ma’s dream for me to take up television and that encouraged me to make a comeback.

What would her ideal holiday be? Whenever work permits, it is a quick trip to our ancestral home in Uttarakhand that revives and refreshes my soul. Her future plans? “In the near future, I want to settle in the mountains – my village home and do something for my people.”
