Paurashpur: When Milind Soman failed to recognize Shilpa Shinde when she was dressed as a queen

It would surprise you to know that Milind Soman, being a fan of Angoori Bhabhi's character in Bhabi Ji Ghar Par Hai, failed to recognize Shilpa Shinde when she was dressed as a queen of Paurashpur.

Milind Soman and Shilpa Shinde have shared the screen space for the first time as co-stars in ALTBalaji and ZEE5’s recently launched magnum opus, Paurashpur. And it would surprise you to know that Milind, being a fan of Angoori Bhabhi's character in Bhabi Ji Ghar Par Hai, failed to recognize Shilpa Shinde when she was dressed as a queen of Paurashpur.

“I had seen her (Shilpa) in the popular television show Bhabi Ji Ghar Par Hai but when I saw her for the first time on the set of Paurashpur, I just thought she was a pretty co-star without realizing she is Shilpa Shinde. I asked somebody who had watched her on television and got to know about it later,” Milind Soman fondly spoke about his experience of working with Shilpa Shinde.

He further added, “When I heard Shilpa speaking, her voice sounded quite familiar to me. When I asked that person, which serial she did, they told me ‘Bhabhiji Ghar Pe Hai’. I couldn’t get her popular dialogue – ‘Sahi Pakde Hain’ out of my mind, which was very distracting.” Milind laughed as he elaborates, “Shilpa is fantastic. I didn’t even recognize her when she was dressed up as queen. The persona, aura, and attitude she created for her role was so incredible. It was really great to work with her.”
