Has Shilpa been ditched from Miss Bollywood?
Because of Shilpa Shetty’s huge wage, promoter Farhat Hussain might be looking elsewhere for the lead role in musical Miss Bollywood’s next season.
A source informs, “The problem is not how the shows fared. They did reasonably well in most of the places, except Germany. The problem is that Shilpa demanded a lot of money. In fact her mother took charge and asked for an amount that was three times more than what was agreed upon initially. The contract was divided in three parts and she had already taken the Rs 3 crores after the first part of the contract was fulfilled. However, for the remaining part she demanded three times the amount. The total contract was over Rs 12 crores. Naturally, Hussain flared up and decided to strike her off from the upcoming season. Hussain was also upset as he is the one who has been officially promoting her after she won Big Brother. He had also organised many shows and charity events for Shilpa.”
If sources are to be believed, Farhat is now trying to rope in either Lara Dutta, Priyanka Chopra or Bipasha Basu. The second run of the musical has been postponed to September.
Have you been to see this musical… was it as bad as the critics wrote… or did you enjoy it… would another actress instead of Shilpa be appropriate? Please do give us your views. Use the comments section below.
