About this product

Product Information

When beautiful, glamorous Shilpa Shetty entered the Celebrity Big Brother house, little did she know that her presence there would spark an unprecedented media frenzy. As the show unfolded, divisions grew between certain contestants and the hostilities that followed led the public to accuse programme bosses of allowing racist bullying against Shilpa to occur unchecked. A debate that crossed international borders raged on outside the house while, inside, Shilpa handled the events with her characteristic poise and maturity. Shilpa is so famous in her home country that she is mobbed wherever she goes. Having made her name first as a model and then as an actress, she entered the Celebrity Big Brother house to 'clear out misconceptions about Indian people. What has taken place has led to her becoming one of the most popular contestants ever- there is not a person in the land who does not know who Shilpa is! This affectionate and revealing book uncovers Shilpa's early life and traces her path to success. It is a must-read for any fan and, of course, for the millions of people who have been following the Big Brother furore.

When British Television Met Indian Filmmaking
This book consists of a very distinct 2 halves, with the first being a description of the events of the Celebrity Big Brother 2007 television series, shown on Channel 4. Whilst the reader is left free to form their own opinions, the author sums up the main events as being “a conflict over class … with race as the weapon rather than the motive behind it all” (pg 264). The second half is then a comparatively short biography of the Bollywood actress, with further details of her career, family and personal life. This creates both an intriguing insight into Shilpa’s European appeal at that time, as well as a readily accessible first introduction to the nature of the Bollywood film industry. The details behind some of Shilpa’s decisions also cast an interesting light on some of the difficulties still being faced by India as a developing nation, with one of the world’s fastest growing economies, trying to preserve its heritage and values in a modernised world. This is therefore a hugely entertaining, educational and informative read, which can be enjoyed as a TV report, a film biography (Chapter 8 onwards), a beginners guide to Bollywood and its celebrity culture, or as something more than the sum of its parts.Read full review
