Shilpa Shetty has expressed shock over her ex-rival Jade Goody's bid to take part in the Indian version of Britain's 'Big Brother' TV show.

Goody was thrown out of Big Brother show in Britain last year after she was shown bullying Shetty. The 27-year-old mom of two was also labelled a racist and her effigies were burnt in the streets in India.

In fact, Shetty was branded "Shilpa Poppadom" by Goody in last year's Big Brother show. However, she went into the Indian 'Big Brother' home this weekend "to clear her name and prove to people that she's not a racist".

But, Shetty was quoted by leading British tabloid The Sun as saying: "When I found out Jade was going on Big Brother India I was as shocked as when I first met her. Why go through this again?

"But part of me was really happy as it is an opportunity to show how welcoming we are. She's going in as someone who has had misconceptions about our country. I hope Jade learns first hand about our culture and how wonderful our people are."

As many as 12 celebrities are expected to take part in the show which may last upto three months.

Jade vs Shilpa by jigna on 2008-08-19 07:19:51.050904+05:30 Goody has brought Shilpa in the limelight otherwise we hardly knew her. Plus allthe fringes and mullah she has accumulatedthanks to Jade. What say? Otherwise Shilpa made news for wrong reasons.So don't crib, you have dug gold allthe way so let her too. Was England not generous to you? Indians stop fighting Shilpas battles in fact she profited more than you people. This is politics.
