MUMBAI: Disha Vakani shot to fame with her portrayal of Dayaben in SAB TV’s Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. However, the actress has been away from the TV screens for a long time now.

Disha is happily married to Mayur Pandya, a chartered accountant. They became proud parents to a baby girl on November 30, 2017. They have named her Stuti Pandya.

Recently, Disha spoke to a media portal regarding the Covid-19 pandemic. She said, 'I am following instructions of PM Narendra Modi and not stepping out of the house at all. We are drinking warm water, eating proper cooked food, maintaining social distance. Also, as house helps are not there now, I am myself doing the whole household work with support of my other family members. I know people are complaining of getting bored but I don't think it should be the case. Navratri is going on, one should concentrate on doing pooja aaradhna. We should chant mantras as it gets a positive vibration inside the house, and that gives you a strong energy to fight with all the negativity.'

She added, 'My daughter, who is too young, misses going out and playing. She keeps demanding for it but as responsible parents, we keep diverting her mind. She is also learning good things with all this. And believe me, ghar mein dhaarmik maahol hone se logo ka man aur sehat dono acchi rehti hai. Hame Mata ji mein bharosa rakhna hai to sab theek karegi. Ye din dikhane mein bhi unka kuch bhaav hoga magar mujhe vishwaas hai ye samay bhi kat jaayega. Accha sochein toh aage accha hi hoga.'
