And it took a toll on my marriage because I had no clue how to handle it. I had a rock of a husband, amazing in-laws, and my family that never let my hand go through it all, and that really helped."A part of her note also read, "So many women ask me how I knew I wanted another child. Honestly, everyone’s journey is different, and it’s hard to pin down what makes you sure. But I will tell you that the only thing I knew was that this little girl, my Nyra, showed me how fearless I am, and I knew it was my decision and I could handle it. Because of those sleepless nights, the body changes, and the adjustment to the firstborn is not easy, but it’s not difficult either."Sameera to make comeback to films after 13 yearsThe actor, who has been a part of many Bollywood films such as No Entry (2005), Race (2008) and De Dana Dan (2009), took a break from acting after her marriage.
