“I simply love Hindi movies,” she gushes. I couldn’t possibly have pursued any other profession except acting on the silver screen. I love what life brings to me and I feel privileged to be doing what I want.” Shazahn (her name means ‘queen of the planet’) decided to graduate to Bollywood after her stint in theatre and acting in various ad films for brands like McDonalds, Clean & Clear, 7 Up, Nescafe, Airtel, Gitanjali Jewels, among others. Adding to that, she has even tried her hand at event management.

She did a small role opposite Ranbir Kapoor in Rocket Singh – Salesman of the Year and her performance was appreciated by the audience. “Working in Rocket Singh… was a great learning experience,” she says, admitting, “My parents guide me. When I took to films, my father assumed reins of my career. He is very strict about my professional decisions and keeps me in check,” adds Padamsee.
