New Delhi: Shilpa Shetty is returning to the reality show ‘India’s Got Talent.’ Before returning to the judging panel, Shilpa reflected on her journey of three decades in the film industry, having stepped into it in 1993 with her debut film Baazigar. Post-marriage to Raj Kundra, she has been balancing her professional life alongside motherhood.
In a conversation with ETimes, she shared that both of her kids have resumed their school, and with them growing up, her days have become quite busy. “My days are getting pretty hectic with the kids growing up. I am trying to fit most of the things in a day,” said Shilpa, who recently returned from a family holiday. For rest, it may be exciting, but not for Shilpa. “It is anything but exciting. It is a lot of work. I am overworked and underpaid,” she added, saying “Maybe not underpaid (laughs) overworked for sure.”
She also said that she does not go in the past. “The only time I reminisce about the past is when I have to use it as a lesson in the present day. It is your past that molds you as the person that you are. I do think how I get the love that I get from people. I feel happy and proud that I have carved a niche for myself in this plethora of talent,” she said, adding, “Life is so unpredictable; you don’t know what is in store for you. I don’t think about the past or the future. I am happy where and who I am. I am a very pragmatic person. I believe that everything happens for the best, even the worst happens for a reason.”
On rumours of Shilpa’s husband, Raj Kundra, potentially producing a movie centered around his life, including his arrest in an alleged involvement in creating pornographic content. According to the speculations, he might take on an acting role and produce the film. Asked about this, Shilpa told ETimes, “It’s not my place to say anything.”
