This is what kept Rashmi Desai away from television all this while

Known for being a part of some brilliant fiction and non-fiction shows on Indian television, popular actress Rashmi Desai has been missing in action for a while now. She was last seen in Colors’ family drama Dil Se Dil Tak, which beamed its final episode on 1st June, 2018.

It has been almost a year since she has not taken up any new project. So, what has kept her busy all this while? Well, Rashmi has not been keeping well lately. Talking to an Indian daily, the 33-year-old actress opened up about the various health issues she has been facing of late.


"I have been dealing with health issues since the past few months. Last year, in December, I was diagnosed with Psoriasis, which is a skin problem. It takes a lot of time to be cured and some times, one isn't completely cured. Since the last four months, I was on a steroid treatment program which caused weight gain," she said.

The actress went on to add that she was not allowed to go out in the sun. "It also escalates due to stress but it was impossible not to be stressed out about the condition as I am an actor and in this business, an actor's face is everything," she added.

We all at Eastern Eye wish her a speedy recovery and return to health.
