Shalini Passi, the grande dame of Delhi’s art scene, is a star in her own right. She showed this in the Netflix reality show Fabulous Lives Vs. Bollywood Wives.
Her unapologetic performance in the show, singing and dancing despite the other wives' mockery, left a lasting impression on the audience. A Delhi-based art patron takes it to a whole new level of ridiculousness in the new season of Fabulous Lives, and everyone, even her co-stars, is in awe of Shalini’s fearless attitude, which she displayed when she decided to jump into the sea on a rainy day, fully dressed. Every episode, she praises herself, firmly asserting that her life is more meaningful than others.
She’s above gossip and confrontation, saying, “All the ladies in the show are my friends.” The reality series this season sees the return of the original cast members—Maheep Kapoor, Seema Sajdeh, Bhavana Panday, and Neelam—and introduces three new cast members: Delhi-based socialites Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, Shalini Passi, and Kalyani Saha Chawla. Talking about her experiences, Shalini says, “I learned a lot and had a great experience working with them.
The Bombay girls have delivered two successful seasons, making it easier and more comfortable for me to traverse a well-known platform. As a result, I became acquainted with both Karan Johar and four fun-loving women from Bollywood’s inner circle.” From Judith Leiber’s Starfish bag to the TV Screen Clutch Bag, her collection of bags is astonishing.
