Ash is good for commerciability, but thats where her credentials run and finish off too. She is a stunning women, but thats all she is. She isn't much of an actress either. I dont care for the number of hits she has delivered. Box office success doesn't dictate whether if one is a success or not, or if one can be called an actor or not.
Shilpa on the other hand, someone I have grown up seeing has grown from strength to strength. She has evolved as an actress and that growth is visable for all too see. She is someone who the media have not been so willing to give her the much overdue acclaim she rightly deserves but that doesn't take away from her the talent she has.
And another reason why I chose Shilpa is because, having seen her on CBB justifies all that I had read about her and seen of her from live interviews too. She hasn't changed from the chirpy and constantly laughing girl I have grown up seeing. Ash on the other hand comes across as fake and her real life persona sucks.
Shilpa all the way
Also, outer beauty alone doesn't make one attractive. Personality, or lack of it, can take away your beauty. Ash is one of those who fall in this section. Gorgeous as she may be, shes as a damp as wet cloth otherwise
