Shilpa Shetty

Call it as a mere coincidence or mere incidents, that anything she does gets translated into national headlines. We are indeed talking about the super hot Shilpa Shetty, whose stocks zoomed faster than the speed of all the F1s put together. All this happened (read was possible) only after the super-success of the British reality show Big Brother. It was this show (and courtesy the late jade Goody), that got Shilpa Shetty transformed from being a Bollywood actress to her present day status of Brand Shilpa Shetty.

While all of this is enough to bring a smile on anybodys face, an unintentional cheeky incident a few years ago saw her at the receiving end by none other than Richard Gere himself! This happened when the pair had made an appearance at a press conference as part of an AIDS awareness campaign, which was aimed at preaching safe sex to the truck drivers in India. Sad as it may sound, but the stark fact remains that even today, many of the religious fundamentalists and Hindu nationalists consider any display of public affection as a taboo. No wonder then, Geres PDA towards Shilpa immediately came under the scanner of all the self-appointed moral police. All of this got resulted in Miss Shettys name being taken not just at a number of protests, but also on the FIR copies.

Now that the dust has settled down, Shilpa Shetty can be seen cheering her team Rajasthan Royals at the ongoing IPL matches. On a lighter note, one wonders, after this incident, will Shilpa and Richard ever buy the saying Kiss and make up is the way to go... What say, Miss Shetty!
