The film folks in Britain are now busy writing roles and script for Shilpa with Hugh Grant! What a time for Shilpa!
Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty and British heart-throb Hugh Grant are to star in a culture-clash romantic comedy, a tabloid has claimed.
A script is being written just for Shilpa, 31, and Hugh, 46, who are very excited about hooking up, The Daily Star said.
Quoting an unnamed industry insider, the report said: “It’s going to be hotter than a vindaloo… with dancing, singing and a spicy story to boot.”
The Celebrity Big Brother winner is scheduled to meet Hugh in London for talks on the Notting Hill-style box office hit, it said.
The source said, “She is a huge fan and is overjoyed at the thought of working with him. There will be some smouldering on-screen chemistry for sure.”
“She brings all the glamour and he brings the laughs and with the headlines they both generate, the film is going to be huge.”
The report said writers had already been hard at work on a rough draft of the plot with some of it being based on Shilpa’s real-life experiences.
He said: “It is the story of a successful and charming, but shy, Bollywood diva who can’t find the right man, until she links up with a producer who promises to help her crack the British and US markets… and they instantly click of course.”
