Shefali Shah says the global recognition for Delhi Crime has changed nothing in her as a person. As an actor, there is more and interesting work coming her way. And the cherry on the cake is that it has nothing to do with her age. Shah said, “As a person, nothing. As an actor, people are writing roles for me. There are scripts that are coming to have very exciting parts. Directors are trusting me that I might be able to carry, a show or a film or a story and it has nothing to do with my age. That also has to do with the fact that content is the king right now.”

No one is a hero or a heroine, there is no box anymore, everyone is important in their space. Every character is important. So, yeah touch wood I am in a good space, finally getting the work I want to do.”
