The 'biography' of Bollywood actress and Celebrity Big Brother winner Shilpa Shetty , which is doing roaring business in Britain and has hit Indian shores this week, is actually an unauthorised book.

This is stated by Shilpa’s own publicist Dale Bhagwagar, who added, "Shilpa has not spoken about her life to its author Julie Aspinall."

Apparently, Shilpa's quotes used in the 'Shilpa: The Biography' are borrowed from various magazine and television interviews, her publicist said.

Also, the book is incorrectly termed "biography" as it misses out chronicling most aspects of her life and career, except for giving liberal accounts of her past relationship with Bollywood star Akshay Kumar , who co-starred with her in hits like Dhadkan and her participation in Britain's reality show 'Celebrity Big Brother', which she won.

Bhagwagar said: "The book concentrates on the happenings during and after 'Celebrity Big Brother' and on Shilpa's iconic rise to fame followed by the transition from an actress to a diva".

On whether Shilpa is expected to release an authorised account of her life in the near future Bhagwagar said, "Since last year, a new exciting phase has materialised for brand Shilpa Shetty. The market is huge and spread over countries, but Shilpa has many more miles to cover before picking up the pen."

"Posterity isn't on her mind right now. What she is concentrating on is selecting her next character from varied scripts she has been receiving almost every week," he added.

Shilpa, who was seen in last year's two hits Apne and Metro and toured Europe with her musical play 'Miss Bollywood', is currently working in the Sunny Deol starrer, The Man .
