Shilpa Shetty On The Cons Of Stardom: We Are Not Monkeys In A Zoo, We Are Here To Entertain

Actress
Shilpa
Shetty
Kundra
who
was
recently
seen
in

Nikamma
alongside
Abhimanyu
Dassani
and
Shirley
Setia,
opened
up
about
the
negative
side
of
stardom
and
said
that
Bollywood
stars
are
not
monkeys
in
a
zoo.
They
are
in
the
profession
to
entertain
the
audience,
but
they
also
expect
the
audience
to
draw
a
line.

Talking
about
the
cons
of
stardom,
Shilpa
told
IANS,
“Fame
is
a
double-edged
sword
but
you
have
to
appreciate
it
and
the
cons
are
something
that
you
need
to
take
in
your
stride…
It
would
be
the
end
of
your
career
or
stint
in
the
industry
if
people
allow
you
to
eat
‘pani
puri’
without
bothering
you,
I
would
say
that
would
be
something
that
would
be
worrisome.”

She
further
said
that
she
will
always
be
grateful
to
her
fans
for
all
the
love
and
appreciation.

She
added
further
added,
“It
does
get
a
little
daunting
where
people
don’t
know
when
to
draw
the
line
because
we
are
not
monkeys
in
a
zoo,
we
are
here
to
entertain
and
I
have
heartfelt
gratitude
for
all
the
love
that
comes
my
way.”

Shilpa
went
on
to
add
that
sometimes,
it
does
get
scary
around
fans,
especially
when
she
is
at
the
airport
to
take
a
break
with
her
family
and
she
is
holding
her
two-year-old’s
hand
and
somebody
just
comes
in
to
take
a
selfie.

“It
is
scary
sometimes
but
otherwise
it
is
all
the
part
and
parcel
of
the
fame
game,”
concluded
Shetty.

With
respect
to
work,
Shilpa
will
next
be
seen
in
Rohit
Shetty’s
debut
series

Indian
Police
Force,
which
also
stars
Sidharth
Malhotra
and
Vivek
Oberoi
in
the
lead
roles.
