“I Did Not Realise the Impact”, Says Shalini Pandey

Playing Kishori in Maharaj, actress Shalini Pandey has appeared in various interviews lately.

Shalini Pandey added “Playing Kishori who is such a naive sweet… Initially, when I read it, I was like bevakoof hai yeh toh (she is stupid) but then I realised she is not stupid, she just doesn’t know any better. She was conditioned so much that she believed everything she was doing. When you feel and do it and think about it, it shatters you. Then you realise she is not stupid. I hope she knew that this was happening to her.”
