Shilpa
Shetty
is
amused
and
exasperated
at
reports
that
she
was
rejected
for
the
role
in
Bill
Bannerman's
Unveiled
that
Mallika
Sherawat
has
acquired.
On
one
end
Shilpa
is
acquiring
the
reputation
of
being
a
spokesperson
for
racial
discrimination
and
other
global
issues.
On
the
other
end
her
role
as
a
glamour
icon
grows.
"Oh, there are numerous projects on the anvil, including a film in British and Indian film from a very reputed company. But that Bill Bannerman film never came to me. And I doubt it went to Aishwarya either. People just presumed we got the offers because maybe we're the names that immediately come to mind for international projects."
Coming back to the Bannerman project Shilpa says, "I'm very happy for Mallika, and I feel she got the role because he suited and deserved it. Please don't make it seem as if she was pitted against me and Ash for the role."
Shilpa suggests she wouldn't have done Unveiled even if it was offered to her. "Where's the question of whether I'd want to do such a role or not. There're certain compromises I'd never make. I've never made them, so why should I do so now? So whether it's Hollywood or British films, they've to fit into my scheme of morality. It's very easy for me to sign lucrative deals out here. But I want to make money on my own terms."
