Yesterday, we brought to you the news of Bollywood and Television actor Shagufti Ali going through a tough phase in her life. The actress has been out of work for the last four years and is going through a major financial crisis owing to her and her mother's health.
Shagufta Ali in an exclusive interview with us informed us, "I don't know why but from the last four years, less work has come to me and whatever came, at the last moment it didn't materialize. Kuch kaam to 99 percent hone ke baad mana ho gaye. I have just done one film in between and that also has not been completed. I shot for it before the pandemic happened. The last full-fledged work which I did was Saath Nibhana Saathiya for a stretch of 10-11 months. For 36 years, I have been working in the industry. In May, I completed 36 years. I started working at the age of 17 and now I am 54. Since that time these four years have shown me the worst period of my life. I had no help. Not many knew that I am going through a major financial crunch because till then I sold a lot of my assets to survive."
