First of all, I am so sorry for not being in touch. But the last week has been tough. Trying to juggle with a whole lot of things. Most importantly I’d like to thank all my fans for writing in. I really enjoy reading your comments. Yes, soon you will hear of another new announcement (ha ha). This is something I’ve wanted to do for a very long time ’cause I know how important it is to each one of us. Okay, okay! I’m not going to say anymore, but you’ll know in exactly two weeks what I’ve been working so hard on. On the film front, Desire is nearly complete. That’s the fastest I’ve ever shot a film. A unique experience ’cause this is also the first time I did dialogues in English and so did Xia Yu (he is used to doing them in Chinese). Not as easy as I thought it would be, when you are so used to saying dialogues in Hindi. Both Xia Yu and I made such an effort not to speak the English language with an accent. But all’s well that ends well. I am happy I got to do this too.
Read an article on Jade Goody’s deteriorating condition… it disturbed me ’cause the last time I spoke to her, she seemed very positive and we were all expecting that the doctors would be able to curb the cancer from spreading. This piece of news came as a shock - so I called her hoping it was only a rumour but she confirmed it. Jade being Jade shifted the topic to her wedding on Sunday and she invited me for it. Unfortunately wouldn’t be able to make it ’cause of my shoot in Kuala Lampur. It was a lot of mixed feelings - happiness, helplessness and extreme sadness. She wants the best for her kids and I hope Jack makes a good father to them. I also hope for a miracle to happen for her children’s sake. My mom says prayers can make them happen. Hope God’s listening to mine and gives her the strength to cope with this pain. I have an empty feeling in my stomach wondering how life can be so unpredictable. Cherish every moment and your loved ones and don’t wait for a Valentine’s Day to express your feelings for them. Bye for now!

I’m glad you enjoy reading our messages.. and I know it’s difficult to reply to them all, but I’m sure you appreciate all our kind messages, love and support.
Another announcement? Sounds interesting. I want to hear more film announcements too though
Looking forward to ‘The Desire’ and ‘The Man’
Yes the whole Jade Goody incident is quite sad. It’s nice to know you two are good friends now, and it would have been good if you could have attended her wedding.. Cant you call in sick to work that day and fly off to london?

Dear Shilpa: Thanks so much for your latest blog. Just saw some lovely pictures of you at a “ficca event”. You were the gold standard among the stars, as usual. Can’t wait for your new video dance for your cricket promotion. Your English is aristocratic & perfect, why worry about dialogues? No comment on Jade, but we admire your generous heart. We love you.
February 19th, 2009 at 12:00 am
I just stumble upon your blog. Let me comment it looks very bad. It doesn’t match with your huge personality. I agree it has to be simple, but at the same time it needs to be glamourous. Shilpa Shetty should come alive out of your blog. Anyway…
Waiting for your latest “Desire” that is creating lots of buzz.
Sorry for Jade Goody. I wonder how she has been living with the death hovering over her?! Lets pray for her. God bless her.
I loved your latest IPL venture. It’s a wise decision. Inspite of being champion, Rajashthan Royal couldn’t make that money (I will talk about money rather than sports..) as Shahrukh Khan did. It was due to lack of marketing and glamour. Now you guys are in and we will be able to have an experience of Spicey-Glamorous Corporate Cricket.
Best of Luck…

Hi Shilpa,
I am a big fan of yours, and your personality! Esp. after BIG BROTHER!
I have been living in Britain for last 4 years and was here during last year’s Celebrity Big Brother. When I heard you were in it… I was really surprised. I had seen a couple of movies at the time… and i liked you.
I always wanted to say something to you after Big Brother… After watching you on CBB, I was really proud of being an Indian! Living in Britian, and watching you represent our country and culture on CBB was a great feeling! You came across very confident, proud, independent modern girl… still valuing our cultures, traditions, and beliefs!… For me you came across as a perfect combination of East and West!…
And I love your friendly and bubbly personality, which is very much visible in your blog too! also… you look gorgeous, all I used to hear from my British female friends here was … ‘OH MY GOD! SHE IS SOOOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL! SIGH!’ … they are all jealous of you Shilpa, seriously! LOL!
Good luck with the Rajasthan Royales, you picked my favorite team!
ttyl
YOU ROCK SHILPA! KEEP ROCKING!

Hi Shilpa,
Writing for the first time to you also, from cold snowy Sweden….So glad that you patched up things between urself and Jade, i have been following her story since Aug 2008, and its really sad to think she has so little time left to spend with her family…but i hope it has woke up the awareness of cervial cancer not only in uk, but around the world too.
Your doing a great job out there, great to hear about ur new releases and upcomming ones too…keep up the great work!!
lots of love,
Kim
