Excerpts
from
the
interview:
Karan:
Ok,
how
does
it
feel
to
be
on
the
show
I
know
I
am
giving
too
much
importance
to
myself
by
asking
you
this
question,
but
how
does
it
feel?
Shilpa:
It
feels
weird Karan:
Weird?
That's
a
first
why
would
you
feel
weird?
Shilpa:
Its
feels
weird
because
you
know
we
have
known
each
other
as
friends
and
you
can
get
away
with
a
lot
but,
I
really
don't
know
the
feelings
are
mixed
Karan:
But,
it's
such
a
sweet
innocent,
almost
like
harmless
show
So,
why
should
you
feel
weird?
Shilpa:
Am
I
still
on
Koffee
with
Karan?
(laughs)
Karan:
What
was
the
worst
thing
Jade
Goody
said
to
you
Shilpa:
I
think
behind
my
back
most
of
the
things
were
said
that's
the
reason,
it
created
the
furor
it
did
it
became
this
whole
international
incident
I
think
we
as
a
race
Indians,
are
pretty
tolerant
we
tend
to
forgive
and
forget
more
easily
and
that's
exactly
what
I
did
I
like
to
give
people
the
benefit
of
the
doubt
and
even
after
those
fights
I
just
wanted
to
move
on
because
I
was
like,
this
is
just
a
show
and
I
am
going
to
go
back
home
and
honestly
Karan,
I
took
up
the
show
because,
I
didn't
think
I
would
last
that
long
I
told
Anurag,
I
left
Metro
and
I
told
him,
listen
this
is
a
great
opportunity,
they
have
told
an
Indian
to
be
on
the
show,
Main
jaaongi,
bahut
saara
paise
bhi
de
rahe
hain,
aur
mujhe
kya
karna
hain..
I
just
have
to
be
myself
So,
I
am
just
going
to
have
a
good
time
and
come
back
and
I
said
keep
the
shoot
after
two
weeks,
I
will
be
out
in
2
weeks
(laughs)
Karan:
(laughs)
So
you
never
thought
that
you
would
ever
ever
win?
Shilpa:
Not
in
my
life
it
was
a
dream
Karan:
What
about
Jade
Goody
had
you
heard
of
her?
Shilpa:
No,
I
hadn't
heard
of
her
Karan:
Neither
have
I
Shilpa:
Ya
people
in
the
UK
know
her
Karan:
Have
you
been
in
touch
with
her
have
you
had
any
kind
of
interaction
with
her?
Shilpa:
No
