And four years later she gave birth to a second baby boy on 27 August 2010. Gayatri has been much missed by her fans and social media has seen quite a buzz about the issue. It is said that Swadesh was a movie ahead of its time and lacked the sense of glamour and glitter required in the movies of that time, and hence even when the movie was loved by the critics and some segment of the audience, it failed for the precise reason. And it is claimed that due to this Gayatri took the responsibility and did not make a comeback. However, there are no sources to this reason.
