"Right now, I am a full-time mother and completely enjoying it. I have no time for films. I am on a sabbatical for I don't know how long. Motherhood is such an amazing experience that everything else takes a back seat, " said Shilpa.
Shilpa, who is married to businessman Raj Kundra, became a mother May 21. She was here at an event to promote skin-care line Olay. This was her first public appearance post-delivery.
Talking about the changes the baby has brought to her life, she said: "Life has changed from being a woman to a mother but it is beautiful."
But coming back to shape post-pregnancy brings a lot of stress for any lady, says the 37-year-old whose baby fat was evident in a loose white and black outfit.
"There are surely lot of insecurities about your weight, skin and the way you look post-pregnancy. But all this becomes a lot easy when you have good and right advice.
"There are pressures on every woman but being a celebrity when we are scrutinised every time for everything, the pressure surely increases. But I haven't started losing weight because it is not on my priority list right now. It is my baby and all that is important for him that tops the list, " she said.
Weight loss is more time consuming compared to skin care.
"Losing weight and being in shape requires a lot of hard work, a lot of time, a balanced diet. But when it comes to skin care, it is far easier. I think less is more when it comes to skin. The lesser you do it, the better it looks. That has always been my mantra.
"We are in a time and age when people don't want to see something fake or too overly done up. If you have to look good, you should have good and healthy skin, " said the actress, who turns to her mother when it comes to taking any beauty and health tips.
