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.

Water demand sparks questions around shoot logistics

The upcoming pan-Indian film Varanasi, directed by S. S. Rajamouli and starring Mahesh Babu, has reportedly run into a logistical challenge ahead of a key shooting schedule. According to reports, the production team sought a substantial number of water tankers for an underwater sequence being prepared at a specially constructed set near Gaganpahad in Hyderabad.

It is claimed that around 150 tankers, each carrying 10,000 litres, were requested from the city’s water authorities. However, the request was reportedly turned down due to ongoing summer shortages and increasing demand for drinking water across Hyderabad. There has been no official confirmation from the makers, though the reports have circulated widely online.
