MUMBAI (Reuters) - Shilpa Shetty, the winner of reality television show "Celebrity Big Brother", will open a chain of Indian curry houses in Britain, a newspaper reported on Friday.
The Bollywood actress hit global headlines after she was bullied and insulted by some of the Big Brother housemates, triggering allegations of racial abuse.
Encouraged by her popularity in Britain, Shetty is also reported to be buying a house in an expensive north London neighbourhood as well as setting up the restaurants, the Mumbai Mirror said.
"The flagship restaurant will be at central London," the Mirror quoted Shetty's agent Farhath Hussain as saying. "The work is moving very swiftly and final details are being chalked out."
The curry chain will be called "Shilpa Shetty Dining Hall" and will have branches across the country.
The report said Shetty was approached by the Australian version of the Big Brother show, but she turned it down. "
"She has moved on in life and she would not like to repeat herself," Hussain said.
Shetty found herself in another controversy this week after an Indian court ordered the arrest of Hollywood star Richard Gere for kissing her on the cheeks at an anti-AIDS campaign, saying it was an obscene act committed in public.

I think it is great that a member spends the time and effort finding these articles and placing them on TIBB :thumbs:
Why let people go to "digital spy" to find info, when it is readily available on here.
Facts and Newspaper articles are on here:thumbs2:
I had to place, (Facts) and (Newspapers) separately Baz.
It can seem like April Fools Day, every day!!! with some of these stories, But we do our homework and try to read between the lines, don't we!

This story, whereby, Shilpa Shetty is going to open a load of Indian Curry houses is a good advertisement campaign all round.
It is great for Shilpa and her agent, (Max Clifford) & all the Indian Curry houses too, which should make them all plenty of money.
It is not a very exciting story and most people would find it so un-interesting really. But it is happening and it has been reported.
____________________________________________
The other interesting part of the story, which most members have probably missed, possibly??
That, Shilpa has turned down the generous offer from Australia's CBB, of Shilpa coming back and being a housemate over there.
I applaud Max Clifford for advising Shilpa very strongly, that this would not be a wise move. Especially as many people assumed that she was very badly attacked by racist English housemates in CBB Jan. here in England.
I don't think it would be advisable. Especially as it could cause a stir and much unrest from, normally, relaxed housemates in Australia's CBB, who would become less relaxed and more over-cautious, if they were faced against Shilpa Shetty.
Anyway, it is all over and now it is Indian Curry houses.
What lays beyond this new enterprise, we shall have to wait an see.
Shilpa is another ex-cbb-housemate who is making it big right now.

Max Clifford would have advised Shilpa from doing this, as it isn't necessary and could cause more problems, instead of opening new opportunities.
Shilpa is doing well for herself, mansi.
I know that you are incredibly aware of all what Shilpa is upto in her life right now and I can totally agree with you, when you say that Shilpa is smart enough to work out NOT to go back into a BB house as a housemate anywhere.
But, Max will still mention it further to her and I am sure that Shilpa will concur with him immediately.

Shilpa is into "Perfumes", "Restaurants", "Film", "TV", "Meeting influential people, like, Tony Blair & the Queen" and many other important things.
Jade goody did this beforehand and made a mint out of it.
Shilpa will follow in her footsteps, "without her persona though"
nodisharmony :angel:
Jade Gobby met the PM and the Queen? Whaever for? Someones head is running loose.

No Shilpa_Fan!!
I said, "Perfumes", "Restaurants", "Film", "TV"
To meet the PM & the Queen, you need to be something special and have a good contact:wink:
Obviously at this time, Jan 2007 to the "present day", Shilpa Shetty is in that position and met Tony Blair & the Queen.
The only thing, is, they won't give a S***
The Queen, probably didn't know who the hell she is?
The PM would know, but meets loads of people, so what??
Tony Blair will be in Sedgefield soon and will be some ordinary person doing a politicians job in his constinuancy. I can't imagine why it would be so important.
The Queen makes a massive wage, by tax payers and some people love her.
"She won't love them back, that's for B***** sure...."
____________________________________________
Despite those above facts.
I hope Shilpa does very well with the curry houses. It is a lucrative business and money goes to money, as they say?

Shilpa has dissapeared and all the 'offers' the press made up were as false as her smile.

Shilpa is in Australia, "apparently?" Kristen.
I posted the article and link here on this TIBB topic:- http://www.thisisbigbrother.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=58087
But you'll have to scroll to the bottom of the page.
I think Shilpa will have some great projects, but the Newspapers do like to mix & over-state things.
She could be "yesterdays news" in a year or two? Or, she could really become bigger and bigger.
That is just the way the business goes:sad:

No not apparantley, she is over in Australia. You should watch more TV and give the weirdo typings a miss, and you might actually catch the "factual" stuff that Shilpa is upto
