Genelia Deshmukh, is one of the finest actresses in entertainment industry. She has done popular movies like Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya and Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na. She married her 'Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya' actor Riteish Deshmukh, the couple have 2 kids. After significant break Genelia Deshmukh made comeback on big screen with Marathi film Ved. Genelia recently opened up about how difficult it was for her to make comeback. 

She revealed that“I don’t give much importance to success or failure. It’s a part of life. I feel we hype our success too much and stress unnecessarily over failures. What truly matters is the impact and intent of your daily life. As an actor who has worked in six languages, I took a break to focus on my children. But when I wanted to return, people told me, ‘Oh, you want to come back after 10 years? It won’t work.’ But my comeback film became a cult. We shouldn’t listen to people."

About managing Carrer and family actress said, “During those ten years, I was focusing on myself and my kids. I remember Riteish telling me that we have to make our kids capable,” she shared. The actress also discussed her transition into entrepreneurship with Imagine Meats, a plant-based protein brand she co-founded with Riteish Deshmukh.

“As someone who was used to easy protein as a non-vegetarian, I struggled with making the shift. That’s where Imagine was born—for every flexitarian who eats meat five days a week but opts for sustainable options twice a week. Even in vegetarian foods, there are limited protein choices, so we wanted to create a sustainable alternative,” she added.
