In the times that we’re living in, fans get regular updates about their favourite stars, thanks to celebs themselves sharing tidbits about their lives on social media platforms.

Actor Shenaz Treasury is also active on social media, especially Instagram, and posts travel and food pics, but one rarely gets to see updates about her personal life.

She’s happy keeping that private. “We live in a world where everything we do is potential fodder for gossip or subject to social media, so it’s nice to have something that is my own,” says Shenaz, who has done films such as Ishq Vishk, Delhi Belly (2011), and last did Kaalakaand­i (2017).

“My Instagram is focused on travel and lifestyle; something that started off as a passion has become work for me.

Every day, I get e-mails and calls from brands [for it]... But I don’t see it coming in way of me being an actor,” says Shenaz, who had told us in an earlier interview that she worked in Hollywood much before Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone, but never liked to boast about it.

She elaborates, “I made a statement in passing and it went viral.

I booked a show in 2011 in the US, called One Life to Live, and was working as an actor there for seven years, over which I did many TV shows and movies.

The roles I did were smaller ensemble cast roles as an Indian or Pakistani. Priyanka and Deepika have done starring roles, and went there as stars. I auditioned and got work!”
