Sexy Bollywood Item Girls : Shilpa Shetty

Not just UP and Bihar but the whole nation tapped their feet when Shilpa Shetty danced to the tune of 'Main Aai Hoon UP Bihar Lootne' in the movie 'Shool'.

Shilpa Shetty, the new Bond Girl?

Post ‘Big Brother’, there has been really no looking back for Shilpa Shetty. The latest is that the flavour of this season is now leading opinion polls as the first choice for the Bond girl’s role opposite Daniel Craig in a Bond series movie.

It all started after ‘The People’ website in the UK raised the question about whether Shilpa would agree to play the Bond girl’s role, right after she won ‘Big Brother’. Since then there have been opinion polls across the internet and vast discussions on whether Shlpa qualifies for the ultimate glam role or not.

Interestingly thousands of people have actually voted for the dusky beauty and she has topped almost seven of these polls.

Surprisingly Halle Berry who was Bond girl in 2003’s ‘Die another day’ and who replayed the famous ‘Ursula Andress bikini shot from Dr. No’ has come second to the Indian diva.

However there is a downside as well. There are also sections of people taking part in these discussions who have been saying that things aren’t all that rosy and this could also end up as yet another big Bollywood rumour.

After the Aishwarya Rai and Gulshan Grover rumours, now it’s turn for rumours about the latest international celeb from India.

Some wrote that she doesn’t quite ‘have the Bond girl look' especially after the standard of the series went up after ‘Casino Royale’ and another even went to the extent of writing, “She is very pretty, but there is something really strange about her. Perhaps it’s the fake nose. It almost works but...”

Shilpa’s publicist and spokesperson Dale Bhagwagar chooses to analyse, “Every celeb has a fan base. Being loved by some and hated by others is a part and parcel of every actor’s life. Everyone is entitled to his/her individual opinion.”

There is yet another hitch which could be 'the Bollywood connection'. The fact remains that there has not been any actor from India who has made it as big as a Mexican Salma Hayek, a Spanish Penelope Cruz or an Italian Monica Belluci.

The general perception by now is that in Hollywood the whites and the blacks have their space, but things are not very favourable when it comes to brown skin and these actors always end up getting stereotyped.

There were high hopes about the ethereally beautiful Aishwarya Rai being the true blue cross over star but that too hasn’t exactly happened till now.

“I only have one thing to say about this. When Shilpa went for ‘Big Brother’, nobody expected her to win. But she managed to prove everyone wrong. If that,which seemed impossible has happened, why can’t this rule be broken as well?

As of now, Shilpa has many offers from the UK as well as the US. She hasn’t consented to any except for the role of Sita in Uru Patels’s ‘Hanuman’ which has two Hollywood stars playing the roles of Ram and Hanuman,” says Bhagwagar.

So if luck continues to favour the dusky beauty so, a day might come when there is actually an Indian Bond girl creating history of the unique kind.

I'll sue Raj Kundra's wife

Shilpa Shetty has been repeatedly named by UK based NRI Raj Kundra's wife as the third party responsible for the breakdown of the couples nuptials. And now it seems Ms Shetty is tired of taking allegeations of her being a "home wrecker" lying down.

Hence she has released a statement quashing rumours that she is responsible for their marital collapse;

“After having been the subject of unwarranted media speculation in the past 48 hours, I feel the need to express my absolute shock at the way there is negative publicity…from someone called Kavita Kundra."

“I do know Raj Kundra as he was introduced to me three months ago regarding the perfume as he is a business associate.”

“I met with Raj in the capacity of the perfume deal and we have had discussions and meetings regarding finalising the perfume S2 which released in stores earlier this month.”

“My understanding is that Raj and Kavita's marriage was over a year ago and they have filed for divorce and have been living separately for over a year."

"I met Raj Kundra 3 months ago in a business capacity, so where the question of me breaking up her marriage arises this is impossible.”

Empathising with Kavita, Shilpa said she feels for her if she is going through some frustrations in life, but refused to stand for her using her name to vent "her frustrations." She has also threatened Kavita with legal action if she continues to taint her name;

“My culture and upbringing does not permit me to break marriages and I am the least interested in knowing or hearing anymore about her.”

“If she continues to TARNISH my name out of any insecurity or otherwise, I will consider taking legal action as I see no reason why my name is being dragged into this mess."

Shilpa Shetty sued for not paying her bills

Washington, July 24: A law firm has sued Indian actress Shilpa Shetty's firm for failing to pay a bill of 13,000 pounds.

The Celebrity Big Brother winner's Cine Entertainment had consulted Carter Ruck after the racial row that made her famous, reports the Sun.

The news comes after reports that the actress has been dropped from Max Clifford's client list due to repeated conflicts with the firm's employees

Security company CTR Services has also claimed that the 32-year-old Bollywood star owed them a sum of 3,000 pounds, according to Contactmusic.

However, Shetty's rep Farnath Hussain said that the company is in 'the process' of paying off the debts.

'Shilpa wrecked our marriage': Wife of UK-based producer Kundra

London, July 22: The wife of UK-based Indian film producer Kundra has accused Bollywood beauty Shilpa Shetty of ensnaring her film producer hubby and wrecking their marriage.

Kavita Kundra hit out against the Celebrity Big Brother winner for pursuing an affair with Raj Kundra when they had just welcomed their first child.

The news comes after the stunning actor was spotted shopping with Kundra.

"Shilpa's a cultural icon in the Indian community, but she's not what she appears. She can have any man she wants - there are plenty of single men. She didn't need to go after my husband," News of the World quoted her as saying.

"Raj bragged Shilpa and her family had been sounding him out as a potential husband. I was stunned. Up until then I didn't even know they'd met," she added.

According to reports, things started after Raj went to Bombay (Mumbai) to work on a script and when he got back to the UK, Kavita noticed a change in his behaviour.

"He'd been away in Bombay for a month working on a script. I'd gone to stay with my parents at their home in West Bromwich. But when Raj returned to the UK he sent me a text message, which took my breath away. It read simply, 'Don't bother coming back,'" she said

The 25-year-old also revealed that Raj was keen on bringing their relationship back on track, but suddenly things just fell through.

"I thought I had every chance, but the arrival of Shilpa wrecked everything. Suddenly Raj's attitude changed and he wanted a divorce," she said.

Last week, the film producer sent a message to Kavita saying 'Lots of rumours in press regarding Shilpa and me. Dad says press were standing outside house all day asking questions'.

Kavita also said that whenever she tried to probe into the depth of their relationship, Raj avoided her questions or laughed off the topic.

"I texted back saying, 'Is this your way of telling me?' He just ignored the question. Since then, every time I try to find out the depth of their relationship, he avoids the question, or he laughs," Kavita said.

However, Raj has denied having an affair with the Bollywood star and said that his marriage ended a year ago, and that it had nothing to do with the actor.

"We're just friends. I have a business relationship with Shilpa regarding her perfume. My marriage ended twelve months ago and it was nothing to do with Shilpa," he said.

Deols didn't insult me: Shilpa Shetty

A story yesterday in a tabloid suggesting that Shilpa Shetty is upset with the Deols for not allowing her to watch their film Apne on the same screen as the Deols, has Shilpa astounded.

"On the contrary I'm more miffed with this fabrication than anything the Deols did or didn't do," she screams from Paris where she has just landed.

"I love the Deols, specially Dharamji, to death. Why would they treat me badly? And why would I take offence about the seating arrangement? The truth is, Shamita and I had to attend a family function in the night.

We thought we'd attend the Apne premiere and then go to the function. But the screening started very late, so we just showed our faces and had to leave. That's it. The next day, on Friday, I had a special screening of Apne for my family and friends."

Shilpa isn't amused by the suggestion of a problem with the Deols. "Throughout the making of Apne we had so much fun. I knew I didn't have an author-backed role.

But just the pleasure of being in the same screen space as Dharamji, Sunny and Bobby made me very excited. If Anil Sharma makes Apne 2 I want to be part of it."

Shilpa to attend Lagerfeld's party in Tahiliani outfit

Shilpa Shetty is all set to attend legendary fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld's party in Paris, and she has chosen to wear an outfit deigned by Tarun Tahiliani for the glitzy affair.

'Karl Lagerfeld has so many really stunning clients from the world over. He's one of the best designers in the world. The guest list at his parties is always an eye-popper. I'm hoping to run into some interesting people,' Shilpa told IANS before leaving for Paris.

She said the invitation came through Atul Kasbekar, who's looking after her advertising work. Incidentally, both Manish Malhotra and Tarun Tahiliani had made special dresses for Shilpa for the occasion.

'Manish, who is also going to be at the party, had made something for me. And so had Tarun Tahiliani. I'm opting for Tarun,' Shilpa said.

And even though her cervical spondylitis has been acting up again, she has no plans to miss the grand party.

'Catch me missing his (Lagerfeld) party for a bad back,' Shilpa exclaimed.

'In any case, I've to be in London's Oxford Street for my perfume in the mainstream market. So Paris is like a stopover. Who doesn't like to shop in Paris?

'Paris is welcome any time. It's one city that I'd visit even without a reason,' she added.

Shilpa to dance her way into the hearts of Brits

Actress Shilpa Shetty is finalising the nitty-gritty's of her Broadway musical which will be along the lines of Moulin Rouge and Andrew Lloyd Weber's Bombay Dreams.

"Her role requires lots of dancing and acting, which is something she loves doing anyway," remarked her spokesperson Dale Bhagwagar in an interview to BBC News.

"From the last couple of months, Shilpa's basic aim is to showcase Bollywood and Indian culture in the West," he added. "Even for the musical, her costumes will be designed by popular Indian designer Neeta Lulla and will represent the ethics and culture of India."

Bhagwagar further informed in the interview that renowned Indian choreographer Ganesh Hegde would set the steps for the musical, while Shilpa would focus on her performance, leaving the singing to professionals. Starting with shows in the UK for the first three months, the musical could travel to other parts of the world including the US and Australia.

"After Big Brother, Shilpa was constantly under media glare with all her moves being marked. She was looking at expanding her horizons by going to another level. This musical gives her a chance to do something she's always wanted to," added Bhagwagar.
