She cautioned that young minds can be exposed to content they’re not ready for and said banning technology isn’t the answer. “Our role isn’t to just simply ban technology; it’s to balance the access and exposure to it,” she explained.
Shilpa encouraged parents to stay involved, talk openly, and use parental controls, adding, “Supervision till 16, I believe, isn’t control, it’s care. Teach them that not everything online is real, kind or even safe.”
Admitting she doesn’t have all the answers, the actress said she hopes to spark a wider conversation. “Let’s work towards raising digitally aware and not digitally addicted children,” she said, adding that guidance today builds confidence for tomorrow.

MUMBAI, India — Actor Sonu Sood has come out in support of Rajpal Yadav, calling him a gifted performer and announcing that he will cast him in his upcoming film.
Reacting to Rajpal’s ongoing financial and legal troubles, Sonu wrote on X that “sometimes life turns unfair, not because of talent, but because timing can be brutal.” He said bringing Rajpal on board is about dignity, not charity, and urged the film industry to stand together when one of its own is struggling.
“He will be part of my film,” Sonu wrote, adding that a modest signing amount adjusted against future work can make a real difference during tough times.
