Shilpa Shetty recalls an incident from a movie set
Shilpa recently appeared on the YouTube channel Tomorrow, Today Show, where she recalled an incident from her early days in the industry. She shared that filmmakers continued to approach her because of her strong commitment to her craft. She recalled an incident where she suffered a burn on her back but still returned to shoot the very next day, ensuring that the production did not incur any losses.
The actress said, “I remember I got burned by HMI light in a shot on my back. The shot was that I had to get out of frame and there was a baby light at the back and my back touched it. When you get a burn, you don’t realise it that very second, only when it starts burning, you realise it. I still showed up the next day. I had to wear an outfit next day, but I couldn’t wear it because I was burnt, so I wore it from the front and asked them to stitch it with threads so that I don’t have to zip it. I worked so hard in my life so that nobody else faces losses because of me.”
She stated that she continued to get work because people recognised her dedication and hard work, adding that she always delivered and showed up, regardless of the circumstances.
Meanwhile, Shilpa was last seen in Rohit Shetty’s series Indian Police Force, alongside Sidharth Malhotra and Vivek Oberoi. Next, she has KD: The Devil in the pipeline. It also stars Sanjay Dutt, V. Ravichandran, Ramesh Aravind, Reeshma Nanaiah, and Jisshu Sengupta.
