Shilpa Shetty might not be a box-office queen, but she is making news, again!
Last week she created ruckus once she entered into the Big Brother’s house and this week for some alleged racist comments.
Big Brother is the Britain’s popular reality television show, which is aired on Channel4. This reality show has huge UK-based Indian viewers. The producers were smart, to keep the TRP ratings high they roped an Indian celebrity, and in comes the Shetty girl.
However, the Indian government has not taken the racist comments lightly and also this issue was raised in the British House of Commons.
This just reminds me of the mid-nineties, actually 12 years to be specific, when Shilpa was in the limelight. She was excited when she found much-needed admirer in the form of an Election Commissioner and a Supercop.
Former Chief Election Commissioner TN Seshan maybe serious and honest in his job, but he made no pretension when he said that he loved to see Shilpa in the song Chura ke dil mera goriya chali. Ditto with the former Supercop KPS Gill. You may always blame him for the current state of affairs of the Indian Hockey. But hey, he was a great admirer of Shilpa Shetty.
Now what? I am sure she will find few admirers this time. British MP Keith Vaz and PM Tony Blair are my guesses. What’s yours?
