The gorgeous ‘Lutyens’ child’ has numerous layers to her personality that capture the old-world elegance of noblefolk.

Shalini Passi recently had an open and honest conversation with The Indian Express, where she confidently admitted to being one of the socialites. She said:
“Yes, I am proud to be a socialite. The word used to have positive connotations in the 1920s, as somebody who used their power and influence to promote causes that mattered. They were great organisers of events. And I believe I am the last of them.”

In her interview, Shalini Passi revealed how her appearance on Netflix has further cemented her public persona. Shalini has found a powerful medium through Bollywood in increasing post-event donations, amplifying causes and raising voices.
