Left Right Left actress Aparna Tilak, who's moved to the UAE, says, 'I miss India, I've missed Mumbai'
Aparna Tilak, recognized for her roles in Indian television, has transitioned to a new life in the UAE as a tarot card reader. Aparna Tilak has found a new calling far away from the spotlight. The actor, known for her roles in shows like Left Right Left and Family No.1, now lives in the UAE, where she has become a tarot card reader. While she shifted there a few years back with her husband, she does miss acting here. She says, "I miss India. I've missed Mumbai, well, it's a part of my soul, Mumbai and India." Having spent over a decade in the entertainment industry, Aparna believes acting and energy healing aren't as different as they may seem. 'Acting is an integral part of me. To be a good actor, you must be an empath. You have to be open to receiving and giving emotions. So, I suppose I developed my empathy skills while I was an actor. Now doing tarot and energy work is like a second skin.' Even though she's charted a new path, the desire to reconnect with her roots remains. 'The thought of coming back to Mumbai and doing a short shoot and coming back is, of course, very, very enticing,' she says, adding, 'I may not have done many shows, but whatever I've done, I think I've chosen them out very carefully. I'll continue on the same path.' Lastly, the actress adds, 'Who knows what can happen? Like I always say, I don't believe in miracles. I depend on them. What if I get to do some acting job in the UAE, I would love to do it.'

His dedication to his character is limitless. Once on set, he is Captain Rajveer (his portrayal) and nothing else. I learnt a lot from his craftmanship, he is beyond dedicated. Despite being such a huge star, no hangups, no attitude, we were like one big family on sets. " The actress also enjoyed working with Arjun Bijlani.
