Charu announces pregnancy: Going for check-up is also scary amid the pandemic

Actor Charu Asopa Sen is on cloud nine. She took to Instagram on Friday to share the news of her pregnancy, with her fans, and flaunted her baby bump, too.

With a lot of excitement, she tells us, “It’s an amazing feeling, I’m overwhelmed. So many mental and physical changes come in the body; there’s something new every day.”

Recalling the day she got to know about the news, Sen recounts, “I was shivering in the bathroom and couldn’t even come outside for 15-20 minutes. Then I told Rajeev (Sen, husband) and he also didn’t know how to express himself. It was late at night. We didn’t know if we should tell the family then or wait until morning. Then we video called everyone at 12.30am. I wish I’d have recorded their expressions; they all were so happy.”

Asked if the couple, who got married in June, 2019, talk about whether the baby would be a boy or a girl and she chuckles, “Abhi tak aisa kuchh nahin socha. It will be a surprise, and we want to keep it that way.”

Currently in Bikaner, Rajasthan, at her ‘maayka’, the actor is excited that the baby is due in November, around her sister-in-law, actor Sushmita Sen’s birthday. The pandemic, however, she admits is making her take extra precautions. “Even when I’ve to go to hospitals for a normal check-up, it’s very scary.
