Shah says that exploring different kinds of content on OTT platforms keeps her busy. "[The OTT boom] didn't happen during lockdown. The wave started way before, and I have been emphasising that [digital content] is not the future, it's already part of our present."

Enjoying binge-watching, Shah who watches all kinds of content, recommends Netflix's Swedish thriller Caliphate. She says, "If you have an appetite for world cinema, then you must watch Goran Kapetanovi's Caliphate." She has another suggestion in Hotstar's Chernobyl. "It's an outstanding series. While I agree it could be disturbing and probably not the right time to see it, it's a must-watch because it stays with you. It thrills me as an artiste [to see] these unimaginable situations that people write about laced with a survival story."

Considering the grim situation, Shah moves away from dark content to some light-hearted suggestions. "A Beautiful Day in the Neighbourhood is a stunning, classic film. It's a great watch in these terrible times because it's positive and warm. Tom Hanks has so much love and compassion, and there could be no one better to play the character of Fred Rogers. I also suggest watching the 1997 film Life Is Beautiful."
