Oscar-winning-actress Nicole Kidman felt that she was "taking baby steps" while shooting for musical "Nine", her comeback movie following the birth of daughter Sunday Rose.The 42-year-old star, who plays actress Claudia Jenssen alongside troubled director Guido Contini, played by Daniel Day-Lewis, admits that she was nervous and found it difficult to leave her six-week-old child to shoot for the film, Femalefirst reported online.
"My daughter Sunday Rose was six weeks old when I started work on it... now I have a life! I didn't have one then, but I have one now. I have Sunday Rose and Keith and Connor and Bella," said Kidman, who is married to country singer Keith Urban.
The Australian beauty, who has two adopted children --Isabella, 17, and Connor, 14 from her previous marriage to actor Tom Cruise, said she was considering walking away from her acting career a few years back to "get a life".
The actress, however, now plans to be acting well into old age like her 'Nine' co-star Dame Judi Dench,74.
"To be someone like Judi Dench - the glorious Judi! She still has that wide-eyed wonder at being an actress."
Directed by Rob Marshall of 'Chicago' fame, the film is loosely based on Federico Fellini's autobiographical 1963 movie '81/2'.
Kidman plays Day-Lewis' muse, actress Claudia Jenssen in the 60 million pound production, which boasts of a formidable cast that includes names like Sophia Loren, Judi Dench, Penelope Cruz, Marion Cotillard and Kate Hudson.
