Konkana made her acting debut in 2000 with Bengali film &#39;Ek Je Aachhe Kanya&#39;, in which she played a negative role. She then acted in another Bengali film titled &#39;Titli&#39;, directed by Rituparno Ghosh, opposite Mithun Chakraborty and her actress-director mother Aparna Sen. Her role in English-language film &#39;Mr and Mrs Iyer&#39;, directed by Aparna Sen, won her first national award for Best Actress.u00a0 <img alt="Konkona Sen Sharma" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/apr/Konkona-Sen-Sharma.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 473px;" /> She then acted in two more English films &#39;Chai Pani Etc&#39; and &#39;Amu&#39;. &quot;I will continue to act in all the three languages. I consider myself blessed that I am multi-lingual and now-a-days we all speak at least two-three languages. I think Hindi films are not all but the big part of Indian movies. I am happy to do a film in Bengali language as I know and love that language&quot;, Konkana told PTI in an interview. Konkana, who made her debut in Hindi films through national award winning film &#39;Page 3&#39; in 2005, said she liked to work in all genres. &quot;It is not that I like only realistic films. I like all kinds of films. I like to be part of films that have a good story, good characters. I choose films that appeal to me,&quot; the actress said. Konkona&#39;s notable performances in Hindi films included &#39;Omkara&#39;, &#39;Life in a Metro&#39;, &#39;Wake Up Sid&#39;, &#39;7 Khoon Maaf&#39; and few others. The dusky actress is making a comeback after almost two years with &#39;Ek Thi Daayan&#39;, a joint production venture of Vishal Bharadwaj and Ekta Kapoor, releasing tomorrow. The film also stars Emraan Hashmi, Huma Qureshi and Kalki Koechlin. The horror drama is a screen adaptation of Konkona&#39;s father Mukkul Sharma&#39;s story. &quot;It is based on one short story that my father Mukul Sharma wrote in 1975. It was a three-page story. It is wonderful and special to work in a film written by my father. He developed the screenplay with Vishal,&quot; Konkona said. Konkona, who married actor Ranvir Shorey in 2010, was away from screen as she is occupied with her baby boy. &quot;I had a baby and that is pretty time consuming. Then I started working last year. I did three Bengali and two Hindi films and they will be released gradually,&quot; the actress said. Konkona said motherhood has not changed things much for her. &quot;I have been the same human being with same value system, likes and dislikes. I guess more or less I am basically same. But, I have become more patient,&quot; she said, adding that striking a work-life balance with a baby around is a challenging task. &quot;It is quite hard to juggle between the two for working mothers. But it is hugely rewarding as the payback is massive and I don&#39;t have any other way,&quot; she said. Konkana admires working women who strike a balance between work and life. &quot;I have learnt to appreciate more working mothers because millions of women are doing that including my maid who does not have the resources which I do. My admiration for working women has gone up,&quot; she added. u00a0
