Shilpa Shetty has shown she does not bear a grudge about the racist bullying she suffered on British TV by planning a move to the UK.

The Bollywood star, who became a household name after her appearance on Celebrity Big Brother, is splashing out £1.5m on a five-bedroom house in a trendy part of North London, according to The Daily Star.

The house in Hoxton will be her base in the UK as she deals with the flood of work offers that have poured in since enduring Jade Goody's tirades on Celebrity Big Brother.

She has spent most of the last few months in India waiting for the furore over the show to die down.

Now she feels it has and wants to spend more time in London to deal with the offers of work coming in, reports say.

Marks & Spencer, film companies, advertising agencies and a perfume house have all offered her lucrative deals, a source told the paper.

"Shilpa does not want the British public to forget about her," said the insider.
