Shilpa, thanking Shah Rukh Khan, wrote, "@iamsrk, for being a true Baazigar and my one and only acting school. Was your co-actor but your fan then, now, and forever. Abbas bhai & Mustan bhai, for handling me with kid gloves and having more faith in me than myself (sic)."
She continued, "@kajol, for befriending and (unknowingly) teaching me the art of being fearless, I feel so blessed. I owe this to my audience! Here’s to another 30. If I knew that getting thrown off a building would give me 30 years of longevity, I would happily get pushed again. After all, “Haar ke jeetne wale ko BAAZIGAR kehte hain (sic)."
