About her upcoming movie Fareb, Shipa shares, "My character is of a doctor named Neha, who is also a devoted wife. If I have to describe this woman in one line, she is the ideal Indian woman. I think I would love to be someone like Neha, she is a very simple and thoughtful person. She is someone very humane and that is something her husband also admires her for.

"It was a fun experience working with my sister in the film. The strength of the film is definitely the performances of all the artistes. It was a difficult role for Shamita, but she has carried it off beautifully, Manoj, as always has given an astounding performance. I, to an extent have tried to match up to his performance."

On the process of learning, Shilpa says, "Everyday I try to learn something from people around me. What I have learnt from Shamita is that patience and craving for perfection pay off big-time. Also, I am someone who to a certain extent would compromise but she believes that one shouldn't compromise in life."

About the story line of the movie, Shipa says, "There are a lot of emotions projected on different levels, which make this film very interesting. It's about a husband who is betraying his wife and he is also feeling bad while doing so. His wife is totally unaware of what is happening and it also depicts emotions of the other woman who wants this man completely."

What are her upcoming projects? Shilpa says, "After Fareb, Dus will be released, after which I have not signed anything new. However, I am going through scripts. I just don't want to do mediocre work anymore."

"I will do good films and entertain the audiences and that's what I want to keep in mind. After Phir Milenge, my perspectives have changed and now I want to do movies that satisfy me as an actress. I want to play characters I have never played before, so I am searching something that interests me," says a radiant Shilpa.
