Shilpa Shetty seems to be the Indian sweetheart that everyone's after! We can't deny that she's done it all from modeling, acting, and lending her support to causes like PETA and the HIV/AIDS movement. She's worked on countless movies in the Bollywood, Kannada, and Tamil industries and has been nominated and won many awards. Well now, the woman who was focusing more on her Bollywood career; has the UK knocking on her door.
The 33-year-old former 'Big Brother' star recently moved into a £5 million luxury home in Surrey, U.K. with her boyfriend Raj Kundra and she's not wasting any time trying to make a name for herself in the Britain. That tenacity just might land her a spot on the popular soap 'EastEnders'. That's right; Shilpa Shetty may soon be ditching her Bollywood dreams to play a character on a British soap opera. We can hardly believe it, but it may be happening very soon.
Someone close to Shilpa Shetty said recently of the possibility that this would "Springboard to long-term success in Britain. Primetime exposure several times a week on mainstream English TV will do her career the world of good. All sorts of roles and deals could follow." The talks are happening right now and if chosen, Shilpa Shetty would play a member of a new Indian family in Albert Square.
The show is popular in Britain and since there's a large number of Desi people in the U.K.; this could be just the right exposure for Shilpa Shetty to make her career soar. So what do our readers think about Shilpa Shetty possibly joining the cast of the 'EastEnders'? Do you think that this would be a good career move for Shilpa Shetty or do you think she needs to stick to Bollywood? Give us your thoughts on this career change.
