MUMBAI: Actress Sushmita Sen's performance in "Aarya" has left Shilpa Shetty in complete awe of her.

Taking to Instagram, Shilpa on Sunday penned an appreciation post for Sushmita, calling her "tigress".

"This lockdown has taught me a few things, the first being how important it is to appreciate, if you do then acknowledge and also praise. I feel, we are so miserly with praise... so (Sunday) binge watched 'Aarya' and I have to say I'm so so happy to see you back (with a bang).

"Sushmita, what a splendid job, such a nuanced performance... loved every bit," Shilpa wrote.
