Kalki Koechlin recalls the struggles of returning to shoot just 3 weeks after giving birth

Kalki Koechlin has always shared her thoughts on social media in the rawest form and her fans have loved that about her. The actor welcomed her first daughter in February last year and has since then chronicled her journey of motherhood. In a recent post, the actor shared a picture from a photoshoot and recalled the time she had to return to work just 3 weeks after giving birth to her daughter. 

In the post, Kalki wrote, "Shot in March 2020, 3 weeks after giving birth, one week before lockdown. I had hardly slept, was tired, anxious and anti social as I ran back to the van to feed my girl in between shots. Going back to work seemed like such a struggle after what my body had gone through." 

The actor also shared that though it was tough for her to get back on set, she is also grateful for it. She said, "If only I'd known I was going to have to spend the rest of the year between four walls, maybe I would've smiled more at this last window of employment. But I guess the intense look of a woman who's going through a huge upheaval has its place too. I'm grateful now, for it all. The perspective that comes with time passing."
