Actress and model Natasa Stankovic is stepping into a new phase of life. In a recent interview with Times of India, Natasa opened up about love, motherhood, career, and how she’s growing through life’s challenges.
After parting ways with cricketer Hardik Pandya last July, Natasa said she is focusing on moving forward. The couple was together for four years and are now co-parenting their four-year-old son, Agastya. Talking about her personal journey, Natasa admitted, “I am not averse to it (falling in love). I want to embrace whatever life brings my way.”
Natasa reflected on her birthday celebration earlier this March, calling it a day filled with love. “This year was beautiful and special. I had a lovely time with Agastya during the day and at night had a small get-together with my lovely people. So my day has been filled up with so much love and joy,” she shared.
While she admits the past year was not easy, Natasa feels grateful for it. “Last year was quite challenging and I am grateful for it. As we grow wiser while going through challenges, and I just love it. Had many experiences (good and bad) so I believe that we mature with experiences and not with age.”
When it comes to love, Natasa is now open to new possibilities. “As I look to the year ahead I am definitely open to new experiences, opportunities and maybe love. I believe that the right connection happens naturally when the time is right. I value meaningful relationships, the ones that are built on trust and understanding.”
She is also planning to return to work after five years away from the industry. “When it comes to professional life, it’s not easy to get back after five long years of not being in the industry. But me being someone who loves working and improving, I will keep trying and if nothing comes up I would happily pursue a new career.”
Sharing her biggest lesson, she says, “Don’t try to prove anyone wrong, because it is only going to cost you your peace. It’s not worth it. Just forgive and move on.”
