Injured Shilpa to take rest for 3 months

Shilpa Shetty injured her wrist and has been advised a three–month rest by her doctor. The actress has no clue as to what caused the injury. "Either it happened because I was practising cartwheels for my new action film or it could be because of the wear and tear that happens in weight training," she says.

Shilpa has found ways to camouflage the injury on screen. "I'll wear a long sleeve top for Bigg Boss and I'll wear a fat kada for Sunny Deol's The Man."

The actress is now at home devoting to those activities that she had kept on hold because of her tight schedule. "I have started reading scripts that I did not have time to read earlier. But I am going to be very careful about what I say yes to. I want to do films where my character is exceptionally well developed. I don't want to do multi-starrers," she said.

Being producer for the first time Shilpa does not want to take any risks. "That's the reason why I haven't opted for top stars because getting their dates would be a problem. Also I have realized that I have become a producer. I needed to do a U-turn to be taken seriously as an actress once again."

Shilpa added, "Financers want filmmakers to cut down on costs. How can that be possible? I don't want to compromise on the quality of my film to save a few bucks."
