Shalini Pandey made her acting debut in 2017 with Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Telugu blockbuster Arjun Reddy, where she starred alongside Vijay Deverakonda. Their raw and intense chemistry quickly won over audiences. In 2022, she returned to the spotlight with Jayeshbhai Jordaar, opposite Ranveer Singh, playing a pregnant Gujarati woman. While the film didn’t perform well at the box office, their pairing was appreciated. Up next, Shalini has her eyes set on sharing screen space with Ranbir Kapoor.
Shalini Pandey shares dream of acting with Ranbir Kapoor: “I’m dying to romance onscreen”
In a recent interview with Instant Bollywood, Shalini Pandey praised Ranbir Kapoor and shared her wish to work with him someday. She said, “Ranbir Kapoor is one actor that I’m dying to romance onscreen. Just to have, you know, work with him, because he’s just been an actor jo mujhe lagta hai jo magical hai yaar screen pe. I don’t know what he does. Maybe he does not even move his face but his eyes are just amazing to watch. Toh jab aap unko screen pe dekhte ho aapko lagta hai ke, I don’t know, just he’s expressing something jo aapke dil tak pohonch raha hai.”
Shalini added, “Toh I think, to experience that high, I would love to be his co-actor.” Interestingly, her connection to Ranbir Kapoor doesn’t end with her onscreen dreams—Shalini has often been compared to his wife, Alia Bhatt. Ever since her debut, netizens have pointed out her striking resemblance to Alia, citing similarities in her dimple and voice. Addressing these comparisons recently, Shalini expressed her admiration for Alia but admitted that she isn’t fond of being compared to her.
On the work front, Shalini Pandey was last seen in the web series Dabba Cartel. In 2024, she appeared alongside Aamir Khan’s son Junaid Khan in Maharaj. Up next, she will share screen space with Dhanush in the Tamil film Idly Kadai. Here’s hoping she soon lands her dream role opposite Ranbir Kapoor.
