A while back, in an interview with the Goa Times, Neha Marda opened up about her postpartum weight loss journey. The actress revealed that she has been working hard to get back in shape. However, when it comes to post-pregnancy weight loss, the actress said that she often gets anxious. Explaining the same, she revealed that it is not because of people's opinions about her, but for herself only. Speaking along the same lines, Neha mentioned:
"No matter the work demands, work is no longer constrained with one’s figure. Regardless of if you are a size zero or any other, the characters are characters these days. As far as I am concerned, I will take up a regime that suits me, but I have made sure that for a whole year, I will not compromise on the fact that Anaya needs to be fed."

In the same interview, Neha Marda recalled the time when her baby girl, Anaya was born via an urgent C-section delivery. Talking about the same, Neha revealed that her family was giving her pressure to be a mom, and she had 2-3 miscarriages. Thus, she was exhausted, and at a certain point in time, she didn't even feel much pain as she was healing herself. Elaborating more on the same, Neha shared that she was in the hospital for 20 days when Anaya was born. However, she didn't feel like she was going through a tough phase as she got connected to her daughter. Neha stated:
"Her birth weight was only 1.4 kgs, and when we got her home, she was 1.8 kgs. I had a c-section and since I didn’t hold her, there was not much connection felt at that time. There are some moms who get attached immediately to their babies. but for me it took time. She has grown on me now and can’t imagine my life without her."
