Richa Chadha, who has praised Neeraj Ghaywan's Juice, says she wants to see more of the short film's lead actress Shefali Shah on-screen. Juice was named the Best Film at the Filmfare Short Films Awards 2018, and Shefali bagged the Best Actor (Female). Richa tweeted on Tuesday: "Neeraj, the film was amaze! So real, like peeking into our own living rooms. I want to see so much more of Shefali Shah in films and in every possible medium! The whole cast was beautiful. Congratulations. Very well deserved. Love you."
Juice is about gender and family dynamics, and it portrays patriarchy and misogyny. The 14-minute film also stars Manish Choudhary. This is not the first time Ghaywan has won an award for a film. Earlier, the director received the Indira Gandhi Award for the Best Debut Film of a director for "Masaan" at the 63rd Indian National Film Awards.
