The 52-year-old actor led shows such as "Mrs Madhuri Dixit" and "Kora Kagaz" in the 1990s. The actor, who became a household name after 1994 release "Hum Aapke Hain Koun!", says she took a sabbatical after she gave birth to her first son, Shauryaman in early 2000s as she always wanted to be around for her children. Shahane is married to fellow actor Ashutosh Rana and the couple shares another son, Satyendra. "I was very clear about being a hands-on mother. I wanted to do that for a long time. I enjoyed seeing them growing up. And I wasn't missing work much anyway as the content that was being made did not excite me much. So I didn't feel like going out of my way to work," she says. Now that they are grown up, the actor is stepping out and reclaiming her place.
