Just thought I should put this thought down before I forgot about it in the rush. Heard that Shilpa Shetty won the Big brother! Oh well.... with the whole of Britain of Asian origin wishing her well this was a given anyway. This is what one means when it is said that "Your luck will turn". Otherwise can you imagine an actor whose acting career or rather the hits that she's given is shorter than the minis that she sports goes to foreign shores in search of fame (or rather money.... I mean why beat about the bush.... better to call a spade a spade) and creates such a storm that the British couldn't wait to pack her up with the programme as well. Though I haven't watched the actual programme I did follow the news about the racial slur and when I saw her competiton so to say... well they looked pretty "DUH". Unfortunately quite a few people from the First world don't know much about the Indian sub continent at all and as a friend rightly told me they still ask questions like "Are there any snakes/ elephants?" " Do you ride elephants?" One smart alec answered "Yes we do share the elephant taxi (like share-a-cab)"... I abs loved this one.... so thought it deserved a mention.
Coming back to our Shilpa... tell me dear do they teach you how to react.... like the exact degree the jaw should drop to show the surprise/excitement/disbelief and happiness, and the exact number of tears one sheds along with the jaw drop. Since 1994 I have seen the exact reaction from all our winning beauty queens and thought I should also learn how to get the degree right, only I could use it on the traffic police when he pulls me over for speeding:) to show utter disbelief and the hurt feelings. Do send me the contact details... be a darling. Shilpa has now become an international star if the breaking news feeds are to be believed. Suddenly they have realised that she was a STAR here as well. Amazing! So I guess now Shilps armed with 100,000GBP prize money will land up in Hollywood. Hope baby your career takes an upward swing rather than the hemline taking it. All the very best.... do take hollywood by storm the way you conquered Britain.
BTW Rahul Roy won the big boss..... I can't say whether his career will take an upward swing.... and with the 50lacs he got, it would be rather difficult landing in Hollywood as well. Rahul you should try Big Bro if they are still up to going into another season. A real gambler would throw in the whole lot..... so go for it what do you have to lose anyway!

The media disowned her when she was 'racially abused' and said that she is not representing India and she is being paid for it. But now that she has won the same media has splashed her around as someone who has doe India proud. Strange but true!
