Shilpa recalled giving her first shot for the film ‘Baazigar’. She said, “I was very scared while giving the first shot of my career. Thank God, I had Abbas-Mustan at my first shot. If you see Baazigar, you can see me running with my dialogues because I just wanted to end it. I even used to forget my dialogues as soon as the director said ‘Action’. I used to panic a lot then.”

She further added, “There’s this sequence with Shah Rukh, the one in the park before the song ‘Kitaabein Bahut Si’. I was hurrying up with my lines and that’s when Shah Rukh said, ‘Always remember that the camera is your audience. And…speak your lines, don’t finish them in a hurry.’ So that’s how my first shot happened. It was nice and fun but yes, I was a lot nervous. Even after today, after delivering 64 films, I feel nervous. And I feel, it is an important feeling in an artist.”
Shilpa Shetty made her Bollywood debut alongside Kajol and Shah Rukh Khan in the film ‘Baazigar’. The film was released in 1993 and gave a major boost to the career of all three actors. Directed by Abbas-Mustan, the film was released in 1993.
