Films are no longer on the agenda as she doesn't want to do the roles she used to do before, and the offer would have to be really tempting to draw her back into acting. Meanwhile, she is planning a business idea that combines couture and culinary arts. She also wants to launch her own fashion line.

Learning curve
Amrita plans to start making appearances and working in reality shows from September. Says a source close to the actress, "From November, she will start work on her fashion line and restaurant business. Her husband Shakeel Ladak will aid her in the culinary business. Amu has been attending office in Bandra every day with Shakeel to understand the mechanics of business."

The source adds, "Amu's fashion sense has often been lauded by her friends and now her hubby is encouraging her to design some stuff of her own." The new mommy has already lost her post-baby fat (21 kg in 6 months) and intends to lose 7 kg more. She will launch her collection by the end of this year.

When contacted Amrita said, "Shakeel has always been extremely supportive of whatever I do. I do plan to work from September."
