Shefali Shah’s solo trip wins Parineeti Chopra's heart

Shefali Shah's cancelled family trip turned into a transformative solo adventure to Rishikesh. In a heartfelt Instagram post, the actor opened up about the guilt, doubts, and eventual joy that came with her decision to travel solo. Her Namaste England co-star, Parineeti Chopra, couldn’t help but celebrate the move, sharing Shefali's post and calling her an inspiration.

Last week, Shefali revealed how her meticulously planned family vacation fell apart when coordinating schedules became an impossible task. In her candid post, she likened the alignment of their calendars to a rare celestial event: "The next such alignment is due on 25th January 2025. Make a note, must watch!" Despite her efforts to finalise a destination, her family eventually opted to "chill at home together," leaving her deeply upset.

Faced with the prospect of missing out on a much-needed break, Shefali chose to go on the trip alone—a decision fraught with emotional hurdles. “I had moral dilemmas ranging from doubt (Should I go? Or shouldn’t I?), guilt (How can I go alone without my family?), to major guilt (How can I spend so much on myself?),” she admitted.
