Mumbai, Feb 18 (NationPress) Renowned actress Shefali Shah recently offered a light-hearted perspective on her Mahakumbh journey, reminiscing about the not-so-flattering photographs she took during this spiritual pilgrimage.
Even with the blurry, poorly lit pictures that made her hard to identify, Shefali dismissed the "Pehechan Kaun" moments and highlighted that while the pictures may not be perfect, the experience itself was invaluable and indescribable. On Tuesday, the 'Darlings' star took to her Instagram to share her sentiments, noting how, despite witnessing the ideal "water" moments, her photographs failed to capture the essence of the profound experience.
In her post, Shefali reminisced about her first time seeing so many individuals emerge from the water looking stunning, likening them to characters such as Elisa from “The Shape of Water” and Ronal (played by Kate Winslet) from “Avatar: The Way of Water.”
As she shared her images, Shah remarked, “The most exotic anyone looked underwater was Elisa from The Shape of Water or Ronal from Avatar: The Way of Water. Until now! I haven’t seen soooo many people dunk into water and come out looking perfect in my entire life as I have in the last month, thanks to the Kumbh Mela. Naturally, an extraordinary experience like this deserves stunning pictures.”
The 'Jalsa' actress further commented, “My photos? Well… bad lighting, no clarity, blurry images, and no face visible to prove it was truly me. No filter or Photoshop can fix these photos. Nada! I won the bumper draw for the most “Pehechan Kaun” pictures. Do I have regrets? Absolutely not. Although I lack photos, I possess an unmatched experience. A photograph or a paragraph cannot even begin to capture the Mahakumbh. It’s limitless, and that’s how it will remain for me forever. #Mahakumbh #familytime #explore #shetravels #sheexplores #kumbhmela.”
On the professional side, Shefali Shah embarked on her Hindi cinema career in 1995 with a minor role in “Rangeela.” She later appeared in acclaimed films like “Satya,” “Mohabbatein,” “Waqt: The Race Against Time,” “Gandhi, My Father,” “Commando 2: The Black Money Trail,” “Jalsa,” “Darlings,” and “Three of Us.”
