Mahesh Babu's sister in law Shilpa Shirodkar speaks about her depression at Bigg Boss 18 . Who is her husband?

In the latest episode of ‘Bigg Boss 18’, the contestants found themselves scolded by ‘Bigg Boss’ for not adhering to the rules during the season’s first task. Following the announcement, tensions flared, leading to arguments between housemates like Karan Veer Mehra, Arfeen Khan, Avinash Mishra, and Shehzada Dhami. Once the dust settled, former actress Shilpa Shirodkar was seen opening up about her personal life in a conversation with Advocate Gunratna. She reminisced how her husband, British banker Aparesh Ranjit agreed to relocate to India when she hit rock bottom after the death of her parents.

With emotion, Shilpa reflected on her past, sharing, “Aparesh was thriving in his career, but he gave up everything, and we relocated to India. When I lost my parents in 2008, I fell into a deep depression. Aparesh was at the peak of his career, but he sacrificed it all to move here. If he had insisted, ‘I won’t put my career aside, you should be the one to adjust,’ today he would be in a completely different position in the banking world.”

Gunratna, who sat alongside Shilpa, offered his perspective on her career choices. He likened her journey to that of a politician, saying, "It takes a politician 35 years to build their career, and similarly, once in 50 years, we get an actor of great caliber. I genuinely believe that, along with Madhuri Dixit, you were among the few who had the potential to reach that level. But suddenly, you decided to leave the industry."


Shilpa, however, responded with acceptance, saying, "But fate is fate, and I have no regrets." Gunratna went on to commend her performances, noting how audiences were captivated by her on-screen presence. He remarked, "While you may not regret your choice, the audience certainly misses seeing more of you. An artist doesn’t just live for themselves; they become part of the viewers' lives."

He continued, expressing his admiration for Madhuri Dixit, Shilpa, and Kangana Ranaut, acknowledging them as some of the rare actresses who have truly mastered their craft.
