ACTRESS PRACHI DESAI ABOUT HER MOTHER AMITA DESAI

According to Prachi Desai, her mother always knew what her ambition in life was and went out of her way to give her a good launching pad. “We come from a conservative non-film background, yet my mom enrolled me at a modelling workshop in Pune when I was in Class XII. Those 18 days at the workshop taught me a great deal. My mom is my best friend and is always there for me.”

"My husband still works in Valsad as a law college professor. I was with my daughters at Panchgani, where they were schooling. I worked as a teacher there. When Prachi got a break in TV, I had to leave my job to be with her. Our lifestyle has changed. Earlier, I had to do think before spending money. Not so anymore. Though even today, we only have a part-time maid because I don't want the girls to get spoilt."

"Our native place is Surat and after Prachi became an actor, we went there on a visit. When we reached out house, a mob gathered. People even barged inside saying 'Bani se milna hai' (Prachi's character in Kasamh Se). It was disturbing. Now, we rarely go there anymore."

"I do shout at Prachi sometimes and then tell myself not to lose my cool. But Prachi listens to me. I counsel her all the time by reading out newspaper stories and telling her it's not safe to go out alone. Prachi understands how much distance she needs to keep from people. She often seeks my advice on what to do."

Describing her daughter as a naughty girl who knows her limitations, Prachi Desai's mother Amita Desai said she was a loving and caring girl. “She has fulfilled all my dreams and I am extremely proud of her. Though she did not have a godfather in the glamour world, she got a break in a successful TV soap opera at an early age. Today I can say with full confidence that she has made us proud with her acting calibre in films.”
