Shilpa Shirodkar

Shilpa Shirodkar has been vaccinated against the COVID-19 virus. The actor took the jab in Dubai where she is currently based. She posted a photo on Instagram and wrote, "Vaccinated and safe."

The '90s actor, who was seen on the small screen in Silsila Pyaar Ka and Ek Mutthi Aasmaan in recent times, will be taking another dose later this month to complete the course. She also put speculation to rest about the side-effects by saying that she is "absolutely fine."

In a recent interview, Shirodkar gave her take on the nepotism debate. She said, "I don't see the harm in a child choosing a career like his father or mother. And I think in India it's been a norm to do that isn't it? Doctor ka beta Doctor, lawyer ka beta lawyer, teacher ka beta teacher, jeweller ka beta jeweller and so on, so Actor ka beta Actor, the journey becomes slightly easy for them, but it's not a given that they will be only and only be successful in that industry. Success only comes to those who deserve it, who work hard for it and with the blessings of the almighty. There are so many successful people in our industry who didn't have anyone and yet have made it big, today if their kids want to pursue their parents' career why not! I think it's unfair to judge everyone."

Shilpa Shirodkar was last seen in 2020 film Guns of Banaras, where she had a small role. The actress is currently living in Dubai with her family.
