Actor

Though the actress got more recognition on the global map for her independent films like ‘Qissa’ and ‘Raahgir – The Wayfarers’ among others, it was not easy for her to get the same attention or recognition in her own country, India. Yet, it didn’t let her down and she kept on working. Shome considers OTT platforms a boon for actors like her as with these platforms her work is able to reach homes. From ‘Sir’, ‘Delhi Crime Season 2’ to now ‘The Night Manager’ and ‘Lust Stories 2’, Tillotama has now become the ‘queen’ of OTT. In the last two years, she has earned not only appreciation for her terrific work but also bagged lots of awards. Tillotama Shome is an Indian actress who is known for her work in several independent film productions. In 2021, she won the Filmfare Award for Best Actress for portraying a praiseworthy role of a house maid in the film Sir at the 66th Filmfare Award.
