/> Though Nandita Das has no intentions of giving up her career, she is at the moment savouring every moment of her joy of motherhood, no interruptions allowed.

Nandita has switched off from the world to concentrate on her son Vihaan, so much so that close friends like Rituparno Ghosh, Shabana Azmi and Deepa Mehta are wondering how to connect with the excited mom.

Laughs Nandita, "I am enjoying this experience of having the little one around, whose cries and smiles mean the world to me. Though much of my time is going in feeding, nappy changing and trying to get some sleep. It is wonderful to keep the phone on eternal silence and e-mails on auto-reply! I have never been so grounded."

Career-wise Nandita is an essential part of Deepa Mehta's Midnight's Children. The actress was earlier supposed to do Deepa's much-acclaimed Water. But the coveted role finally went to Lisa Ray. "But no regrets and no grudges, " laughs Nandita.

Deepa and Nandita now meet just like old times.

Nandita is in her happiest space possible. "I have never been so grounded. Somehow I am missing nothing else. Subodh and I are spending a lot of time just watching our son! We have named him Vihaan. It is the Sanskrit word for 'a new beginning' or 'the morning rays of the sun'. It sure is a new beginning for us."

Uncannily, Vihaan was born on the same date this year that Nandita met her husband last year. "The uncanny thing is that Subodh and I met on the 11th of August last year, and he was born on the 11th of August this year! Bizarre! The date will surely be the most important date in our lives."
