Shilpa Shetty in Big Brother Debate

Shilpa Shetty has been rumoured to be going into the Celebrity Big Brother house on Wednesday 3 January 2007 and many a debate has been sparked up as to whether or not she should go into the house. Some forums are saying it’s a last minute attempt to save a flagging career while others call it a most undignified thing to do. The truth is Shilpa is a good person from a decent family and has no flagging career to save. She’s doing fine and is sailing high from good work in positive films and doing shows taking Bollywood places it’s previously not been (like Karachi recently). She has two high-profile films coming up (Metro, Apne) and has always taken decisions against the norm which have worked to her advantage. Where previous celebrities on Big Brother are concerned, I think Shilpa is the biggest one to ever appear on the show. As for dignity, I think the real eye-opener will be for critics who think Shilpa (and most of Bollywood) are foul-mouthed, hypocritical hellraisers who cannot separate fun from sin. Shilpa is a sweet, fun-loving decent girl from a good family that is built on respect. She is inseparable from her family who have been her strength and support throughout her career. She’s simply not capable of being a fake and what you see is what you’ll get to see in the CBB house when her detractors will be proven wrong and the whole world will fall in love with Shilpa Shetty again. Wait and watch!
