According to the Times of India, she said that her ‘defining moment’ happened just a few years ago, even though she had been working for a long time. The actress stated that the moment led to more work for her.
Shefali revealed, “That happened with Delhi Crime for me, where my art was appreciated and I had the opportunity to play a lead role and work at my age.”
