Actress Shilpa Navalkar , who had turned a playwright with her Marathi play ‘Selfie‘ , has proved successful as a writer, as her play has presented 100 shows.

The English version of this play will be staged soon, which will be directed by Tanaaz Irani and will star Tanaaz Irani, Dimple Shah, Shweta Gulati, Priya Malik & Kiswar Merchant. Joy Singh Gupta has translated this play into English, but the subject of this play having an universal appeal, it can work in any language. The original Marathi play directed by Ajit Bhure, had staged this play in USA for almost one month. Now, the play ‘Selfie‘  will be nearing the mark of 125 shows.

Reacting to this good news, writer Shilpa Navalkar has expressed her happiness, over staging of her play in English. “I feel, all the people should watch this play” she said.
