Shefali Chowdhury – Parvati Patil
Born in Denbighshire, Wales, to Bangladeshi parents, Shefali Chowdhury portrayed Parvati Patil in Harry Potter. She featured in three films, including Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, donning heavy makeup and traditional attire distinct from her natural look. Off-screen, her shorter hair and modern fashion sense differ from Parvati’s traditional image.
Shefali starred in TV series like “Fresh Meat” and “Indian Summers.” Talented in both film and television, she’s known for her friendship with co-star Afshan Azad and advocacy for diversity and inclusion in the film industry. She is also a role model for young Indian women, who see her success as proof that they can achieve their dreams.
