Shilpa says no to reality TV
(NSI News Source Info) Saturday - August 30, 2008 Mumbai: Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty, who had won Big Brother last year, says she will never participate in another reality television show. "No way. I can't go through it all over again. I really don't have the patience," said Silpa in an interview to People magazine. Shilpa shot to fame on Big Brother and endured racial slurs from fellow housemate Jade Goody. "You're forced to stay with people you might not get along with. You cannot run away and no matter how difficult they are you have to deal with them There's always a fear about what the camera catches and how you are projected in the outer world."Shilpa says this is the reason that she has always guarded her private life, especially moments spent with former business partner turned boyfriend Raj Kundra. "We never realized when the friendship became something else and went to the next stage," she says. "It was the comfort level that I had with him, which prompted me to partner with him on other ventures." Fighting back Raj's ex-wife Kavita's allegations that Shilpa is a home-wrecker, the actress said that she met Raj after his separation from Kavita and that she (Shilpa) could never have pursued him because she is "old-fashioned for that".Of long-term plans -- both in business and in love - Shilpa said that she is presently consumed by her under-production film and that a date for the wedding "will culminate once the film releases and all this tension is out of the way".
