Shilpa 'n Hugh in movie
BOLLYWOOD beauty Shilpa Shetty and Brit heart-throb Hugh Grant are to star in a culture-clash romantic comedy.
A script is being written just for Shilpa, 31, and Hugh, 46, who are very excited about hooking up.
An industry insider said: “It’s going to be hotter than a vindaloo... with dancing, singing and a spicy story to boot.”
The Celebrity Big Brother winner will meet Hugh in London today for talks on the Notting Hill-style box office hit.
The source added: “She is a huge fan and is overjoyed at the thought of working with him. There will be some smouldering on-screen chemistry for sure.
“She brings all the glamour and he brings the laughs and with the headlines they both generate, the film is going to be huge.”
The insider told the Daily Star that writers have already been hard at work on a rough draft of the plot with some of it being based on Shilpa’s real-life experiences.
He said: “It is the story of a successful and charming, but shy, Bollywood diva who can’t find the right man, until she links up with a producer who promises to help her crack the British and US markets... and they instantly click of course.”
