Shilpa Shetty - Global Opportunist?

Shilpa Shetty seems to have hit good times like never before. First her popularity soared after she won the British reality show Celebrity Big Brother and now the BJP is wooing her to join the party. Some new channels say that she has already got offers from Hollywood - WOW!

Most Indians who have spent time living in London will have a personal story to tell you about Racial Discrimination. It might not be a big one like Shilpa's...it will still be true. So, I refuse to believe that Shilpa was naive enough to think she'll have a good time in London doing the show. She is a smart woman who has got on the top of the heap in Bollywood (which is probably worse than Celebrity Big Brother). She would have done her research. My take is that she fully knew what she was getting into. It probably got blown out of proportions...so what the heck...Three weeks of grueling effort and the results are for all of us to see.

Way to go Shilpa...In a largely opportunist world, i see no wrong in what you have done...Go get the world.
