Gurinder is currently working on the script of the 1980's series Dallas but due to pregnancy, she has taken a break. Gurinder informs that she is four and a half months pregnant and hence, she had to take a break from Dallas. Gurinder and Paul have been married for 10 years and therefore they are very eager for the twins who are due this July. She jokingly adds that if she has a boy and a girl, she will call them Ash and Abhishek.

In addition to this, Gurinder Chadha was also awarded the Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) on Tuesday, Feb 13. It was a great honour she says as she was awarded by Queen Elizabeth herself. Gurinder's entire family was present for the occasion.
