Shalini Passi is married to a millionaire and leads a lavish life but also has benevolent heart. She revealed what she did with the money she earned through the Netflix show. "This is a question that I've been asking everybody: Why am a I born here? What is my purpose? As a human being, you do your best. My entire acting fee actually goes to a village through UNICEF in Bihar. Everything that I do, all my earnings go to charity. I work diligently with them," Shalini said in an interview with Aaj Tak.
"Beyond that also, I've been trying to create a show about women's voices, and another one representing Indian culture. However, I have often received feedback that there's not enough audience to watch these shows. I am ready to show India its culture, the power of women, but the audiences have to be ready. It's just not about my time, it's about production and the cost as well," she added.
