Shilpa Shinde

Life is full of ups and downs. One needs to stay positive in life, no matter what.

ups-and-downs matter positive life

To be honest, I am a really simple person, and most of my friends are not from the industry. I am most comfortable with them. They don't treat me as an actor, and neither would they tolerate me behaving like one.

i-am me friends simple

I believe whatever has to happen will happen - you just need to stand up for yourself.

stand-up yourself you believe

A lot of people had misconceptions that I throw tantrums and am very arrogant, and I knew 'Bigg Boss' will change that. You cannot pretend for 105 days in front of more than 100 cameras. I know myself, and I was confident that the world will also get to know and understand me through this show.

myself me you change

My wedding preparations were done. My wedding outfit was ready. I had even bought my jewellery, and the cards were also printed. It is very sad that I had to call off my marriage one month prior to the actual date.

I am always confident that I am a good person.

My confidence to win 'Bigg Boss' did not come from the number of fans I had before entering the house.

I have never hurt anyone, and that pays back. I have always wanted good for everyone.

No one quits a successful show without a valid reason.

Let me tell you, everyone has different experiences. I had a lot of things going on, and I am dealing with it in my own way.

After the 'Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain' controversy, people believed they made my career, but I now maintain that 'Bigg Boss' made Shilpa Shinde.

career now boss people

I have purchased a flat in Malad, but that is not with my 'Bigg Boss' prize. I had bought it with my earnings that were released by producers of 'Bhabhiji Ghar Pe Hain' just before I was offered 'Bigg Boss.'

before just prize boss

No artist from my industry has ever supported me, but all technicians have been on my side.

In our industry, everything is taken lightly. Guys say so many things, and if you react to them, they go, like,'We are kidding.' Things like 'You are looking hot sexy' are common.

looking you sexy hot

I have this concept that I will create a creche for old people. Yes, a creche, how when you go to work you drop kids to their creche and there they mingle with other kids and at the same time are in safe hands and you know they have been looked after.

you work time people

I don't believe in uselessly fighting for nothing.

nothing fighting believe

I am overwhelmed with the love and affection of the people. Girls have written letters calling me their inspiration, which has touched my heart.

i-am me heart love

It is tough for an actress to raise her voice on sexual harassment because the chances are they will question your character, they will ruin your career, and they will defeat you in the power game. So one has to be very strong to fight against these white-collar mafias.

fight you power character

This is not a filmy line, but truth always wins.
