Recently, Shefali Shah also opened up about facing street harassment at a young age. In a conversation with News18, Shefali said that sons should be raised right in order to stop such atrocities. The Darlings star said, “Whether I am a celebrity figure or not, I genuinely believe our daughters would be safe if our sons are raised right, and I have two sons. It's my responsibility to raise them right. And now we don't even talk about our daughters being safe. We just talk about people being safe, respected and not harassed. And for that, I've got to raise two good wonderful sensitive individuals.”
Shefali Shah added, “There's a lot I try to tell them but I've understood that their attention span is only (shows hand gestures denoting too little) this much. To put it short and sweet, I always tell my sons - to treat others the way you expect to be treated yourself. It's really just as simple as that.”
Shefali Shah has been nominated in the Best Performance by an Actress category for her work in the Netflix series Delhi Crime 2.
