Скачать или смотреть From Monsoon Wedding to Delhi Crime: Shefali Shah on Her Journey | The Faye D'Souza Show

Shefali Shah is one of India’s most powerful actors — but her journey hasn’t followed the typical Bollywood script. In this candid conversation with Faye D’Souza, Shefali opens up about the roles that didn’t come her way, the years spent waiting instead of working, and why she chose to step back from the spotlight.

In this episode, she talks about:
– Her breakout moments in Satya and Monsoon Wedding
– Walking away from her career to prioritise family
– Imposter syndrome and the fear of not being good enough
– How stars are treated on sets vs other actors
– Ageing in an industry obsessed with youth
– Why she believes “ageing gracefully is a myth”
– The cost of choosing integrity over visibility
– Her reflections on turning 50, feminism, and finding her own voice

This is an honest, funny, and vulnerable conversation with an actor who’s never followed the crowd — and whose story is far from ordinary.
