After delivering her baby boy, Rupali took a sabbatical from acting. After taking a sabbatical for seven years, she returned to acting with the show Anupamaa, which is one of the most popular shows on Indian television today. Rupali began the show by charging Rs. 1.5 lakh per episode. However, as the show's TRPs skyrocketed, Rupali, too, increased her fees to Rs. 3 lakhs per episode. She is now paid way ahead of the male leads of Indian television.
During an interview with News18, the actress revealed how she successfully returned to television. She lauded Ashwin for being the pillar of strength and always supporting her as a doting hubby. Rupali said that it couldn’t be possible without the help of Ashwin as he took early retirement and shifted from America to India, only to support her dreams. In her words:
“I am blessed that I have a husband who is so supportive. He has taken early retirement and moved from America. It does not matter if I work or not. We do not have big desires.”
