The 48-year-old Hindi movie icon told the Times of India that she feels her "talent is insufficient to judge" as she spilled all on her India's Got Talent career.

Shilpa, who has been judging the show since 2022, revealed she doesn't think she is "half or quarterly" as talented as the performers she see's on the show.

She said that sitting on the judging chair comes with its own set of difficulties as she feels the job is more a "responsibility" - but she knows how to "switch off when home".

"It is consuming when you are sitting on that chair... I am consumed in such a way that it is exhausting to see 25 acts on a day," she said.

But although the job can be physically draining, Shilpa doesn't allow this to dampen her love and passion for her judging duties.

She said that watching this generation's talent - and especially the kids - perform on the big stage is "truly exciting and an absolute revelation".

"The hunger and the fire they have in their belly. It’s an extraordinary talent that can be showcased on the international platform," she said on the show.

And giving her professional thoughts on the inside of India's Got Talent, the Apne actress shared that to her - presentation is the key to the way she perceives the talent.

"What's most important is that the talent has to interest, engage us.

"The acts are pretty much the same, but how they present the act is what sets them apart from the rest".

It comes as Shilpa set hearts racing in a hot pink "Barbie" saree while promoting her latest movie in Mumbai.

Stunned onlookers gathered around the Bollywood starlet on the street and she posed for the camera in her dazzling outfit.

And last month, the actress gave the perfect response after getting into a "nepotism feud" with Karan Johar.

In a video she claimed she never got the support of Bollywood’s big production houses despite having working in showbiz for some time.
