After playing Alia Bhatt's mom in Darlings, Shefali Shah requests filmmakers to not offer her 'mother' roles

Shefali Shah is all set to star in Netflix's show Delhi Crime Season 2. In a new interview, Shefali has said that she doesn't want to play the role of a mother of a ‘40-year-old’.

Actor Shefali Shah has been receiving appreciation for her role in Darlings. In the film, Shefali essayed the character of Alia Bhatt's mother. Now in a new interview, Shefali has requested the filmmakers to not come to her to play the role of mother and that she will not do it.

Shefali Shah played the role of Alia Bhatt's mother in Darlings.

Shefali Shah's last release, Darlings, also starred actor Vijay Varma in a pivotal role. Co-produced by Alia and Shah Rukh Khan, the film was released on Netflix on August 5.

In an interview with Filmfare, Shefali said, "I'll play seventy when I am seventy. Unless you give me a role which is like starting from a certain age to a certain age and it blows my mind, and I say, you know, I'd die for this role. So it's not that I won't do it, but for god's sake, don't come to me with stuff because you've run out of imagination of who to cast as a mother. And I am a mother, proudly so. But don't make me the mother of a forty-year-old and a thirty-year-old because I'm not. Okay. The first is that."

On Wednesday, Shefali announced on Instagram that she has tested positive for Covid-19. She said, "I have tested positive for Covid-19. Have immediately isolated myself and will be under home quarantine. I am following all safety protocols under the advice of my doctors. Requesting everyone who came in contact with me to get tested immediately too."

Shefali will soon be seen in Delhi Crime 2 and Doctor G. Delhi Crime Season 2 will release on Netflix on August 26. The first season of the show written and directed by Richie Mehta, was based on the Delhi police's investigation of the 2012 Delhi gang rape.
