In the video posted on the micro-blogging site, the 'Apne' star shared a humorous event that took place while she went to watch her film in the theatre.
Shilpa told,"I was watching it with two pigtails because I did not want people to recognize me. I was sitting on the last floor with my mother, and there were two-three college boys sitting ahead of me. The scene came when Shahrukh pushes me; and to that scene where I am lying dead, those boys started commenting, 'nahi nahi yaar.. uthegi dekhna, heroine hai, hot hai, uthegi wo, maaregi thodi usko'," she cracked up while describing the moment.
