TT & me: Shilpa will be present at the WIFW for Tarun TT had asked me to be a part of his show two months back, but I had declined as I had my Bollywood musical lined up. However, now the musical has been postponed, I am here for TT. I love his very Indian drapes, says Shilpa.
Going musical: Shilpa’s Broadway musical Miss Bollywood will be showcased in Berlin on September 29. Also, I will be attending the Toronto Film Festival where I have to give away an award to Richard Gere, she reveals. Richard Gere, huh? Yes, she laughs, adding, I will meet Richard again. It is really sad how the incident was blown out of proportion. In fact, after that incident, my friends living abroad asked me whether effigies are available in the Indian markets just like that! I was very embarrassed, she says.
Controversies Inc: I am tired of all this character assassination, Shilpa says about the Gere and Raj Kundar controversies. I understand that the media has to show every side of you positive and negative, but it should be constructive criticism. However, this has taught me that there is a lot of dignity in silence, she says.
Life’s good: Shilpa is on seventh heaven. Meeting Queen Elizabeth was such a great experience. In fact, I had to pinch myself to believe that it was actually happening. There were so many learned people under one roof that I was awed. When it was my turn to speak, I talked about racial discrimination and the feeling was great. I felt a proud Indian, she says.
B-grade actor who me? Shilpa accepts that she has not worked with Yash Chopra and Karan Johar. But that does not make me a B-grade actor, as some people have said! I have done all sorts of movies - from horror to comedy.
Marriage can wait: At present, Shilpa has her plate full. Maybe that is why I have not been able to answer the question about when I will get married. Not that I don’t want to settle down... I am a romantic at heart and I would want to have a family of my own, she explains.
