New Delhi:

Actress Tillotama Shome was just a college student when she got her first photoshoot done - she recently shared a glimpse of it on her Instagram. "This was my first photo shoot ever in life. Delhi days. Location was the Rail Museum. My photographer friend was more comfortable shooting nature and animals but agreed to do this," Tillotama captioned her post. Tillotama was studying literature in Delhi's Lady Shri Ram College when she actively started doing theatre. Mira Nair's 2001 movie Monsoon Wedding marked her acting debut, in which she was cast as the house help named Alice. The shoot location of Mira Nair's wedding drama was Delhi.

In her Instagram post, Tillotama revealed that after having featured in Monsoon Wedding, she had landed in Mumbai with her first ever photoshoot as her portfolio, which she must have sent across for role auditions. Tillotama Shome added that people failed to identify the one in the photo as Alice from Monsoon Wedding: "PS - I came with prints of this photo and two other to Bombay. They could not place Alice from Monsoon Wedding and this girl. 'It was confusing'. So I left Bombay and went off to study and came back when folks were a bit less confused."
