Will Rachana Banerjee quit ‘Didi No. 1’ post her win in the Lok Sabha elections in 2024?

Rachana Banerjee has a new responsibility on her shoulders. The actress and television personality, who stepped into the political arena earlier this year, has emerged victorious on her maiden tryst in politics. The ‘Didi No. 1’ fame won the seat in the Hooghly constituency by a margin of over 76 thousand votes. She defeated the BJP's candidate and her colleague from the entertainment industry, Locket Chatterjee.
After winning the seat in the Hooghly constituency, Rachana is now looking forward to winning the hearts of the common people in her constituency with her work. In order to do so, is she planning to quit ‘Didi No. 1’?
Rachana recently opened up about her plans. The actress revealed that she has no plan to move on from ‘Didi No. 1’ even after debuting as a politician. According to the actress, she wants to continue with both her responsibilities. During her campaign before the Lok Sabha elections, Rachana juggled between campaigns and shoots for Didi No. 1. As per a close source, the Didi No. 1 host is super professional and fast at her work. She shoots for multiple episodes back-to-back in a day so that she can give time to her other commitments. Rachana aims to continue the same way even after becoming a public representative.

What else is on Rachana’s mind as she begins her journey as a politician? Rachana reveals she is going to take a bit of time off and tend to her son. Rachana says that she has not been able to give time to her son in the last couple of months. Now that the rush days are over, she wants to spend a bit of time with her son. Not only that, Rachana vows to not touch rice for at least a year. The actress jokes, the amount of rice she has consumed in two months should sustain her throughout a whole year!
Rachana Banerjee started her career with beauty pageants. Later on, she starred in more than 30 films with Tollywood star Prosenjit Chatterjee. Rachana even shared the screen with Bollywood star Amitabh Bachchan in ‘Sooryavansham’. Apart from starring in several Bengali films, Rachna is a known face in Odia films too. The actress has worked in a few Telugu, Tamil, and Kannada films as well. After her stint on the big screen, Rachana turned to Bengali television. The actress has been hosting Didi No. 1 for years now. She started her journey with the popular game show from the second season. The show is currently in its ninth season.
