Resolution Note:
The user expectations was to see semitransparent shadows from the curtain. HDRP currently only supports opaque shadows, disabling shadows entirely for an object, or alpha clipped shadows ("Shadow Threshold") for transparent objects, and true semitransparent shadows is not currently supported.
