Facts/Trivia
- In 1980, Shaylee, her family, and thousands of Kashmiri Pandits moved from Anantnag, Jammu and Kashmir to a refugee camp. Her parents were the descendants of a royal family who had to leave their villa and live in refugee tents. In an interview, she talked about her troubled childhood. She said,
My father was well educated. So, he could secure a job in a bank in Kashmir. It made it possible for my family to get a new house. It was more like winning a lottery for me when I got to use my own bedroom and washroom for the first time. I was eight years old when I left the camp and our life started anew. But still, it is painful to know that around 60,000 families still live in there.”
She further added,
So, nothing seems big for me and I don’t take success and fame into my head. My favourite place in the world is my bedroom inside the house that my papa owned after getting his first job.”
- She has got a tattoo inked on the middle finger of her left hand.
