I disagree. Shilpa did have a personality besides all this. She was socially awkward, curious about how life from a non-wealthy background works unlike her own, faced for the first time being in an environment without an entourage, and had a quirky sense of humor. And as a side note she was funny with Dirk in early episodes, like mispronouncing his name as Duck or when she laughed off his obvious advances at her.

And to be fair, a LOT of CBB housemates were non-entities in the early days... I cannot think of one influential or important housemate in CBB1 & 2 apart from Vanessa Feltz. As someone who's watched the early episodes of CBB5 recently, the only people I saw with an over-abundance of focus was Leo, Jade, Jackiey, and Danielle
