Sushmita enjoying ‘wearing many hats’
Former Miss Universe and actress Sushmita Sen says it has been a “daunting task” to juggle between her role as a mother and as a businesswoman.
“Right now I am wearing many hats — from being a mother to running ‘I Am She’ and putting my film production company together. It has been a daunting task,” Sushmita said on the sidelines of a recent event.
Sushmita is the founder of I Am She, a national beauty pageant, started in 2010, which sends its winner to Miss Universe and Miss Asia Pacific pageants.
Indore-based girl Himangini Singh Yadu, who represented India at the Miss Asia Pacific 2012, won the international title, leaving the actress extremely proud.
In the meantime, her production plans are on hold.
“My film ‘Jhansi Ki Rani’ has been put on hold. I can make that film only when I get the right kind of budget. It is a film that has been storyboarded and locked,” added the 36-year-old, who has adopted two daughters - Renee and Alisah.
