well..this whole issue of shilpa...with all due respect..i have to say that it was nice tht you won the big brother...but dnt u think that it was just sympathy thrown on you..and i feel there is nuting India has to be proud about either...its just a god damn GAME SHOW....where u are viewed 24/7..so whats the big deal in that...grow up guys..Shilpa..i guess u need to prove urself..by doing sumthing urself..rather than getting the easy way to success thru sum game show...or due to sympathy!!

all my wishes...god bless you

Most of the shilpa supporters in here are like the indian media. the indian media has a tendulkar and dravid and some chocolate faces from bollywood to highlight. we indians are so desperate for a win and now we take this win from stupid game stupid as the big one. Can i ask us so very proud indians...have we thought about winning some real prizes like some gold medal at the olympics even to try and send a 16 memeber foot ball team to the AFC if not the world cup..? what i am saying is we have other competitions in the world other than cricket.
A population of a billion should be doing more challenging things other than watching those stupid bollywood love masalas and competing amongst each other to make india the most populous country. i am sure when that is acheived a lot of you will start being proud about how fertile our women are and how potent our men are.
hmm......

I totally agree with You... What she should do to prove that she herself is not a rascist is to marry someone less fair, maybe on the darker side. Secondly she could donate a part of her free earnings to old age homes and not to Tirupati temple with a wish to earn more. Otherwise she has done wonderfully. I am proud of her. God bless her and her mother.

YOur perspective may be correct, but i feeel that there have been quite a outrage on the attitude of Jade and fellow brits towards racism. UK schools have propsed to induct subjects into their school cirriculum so that brits have knowledge on Indian culture after this incident. So there are certainly some after affects. AS for the easy way out for Shilpa, she has been a celebrity and hence this her routine job.. i think the game show is one of the livelihood of such stars.
