Shilpa Shetty's spokesperson Dale Bhagwagar has dismissed rumours of the actress being part of the international film 'Babel' opposite Hollywood heartthrob Brad Pitt and actress Cate Blanchett (of Shekhar Kapur's 'Elizabeth' fame).
"Shilpa has not signed any international film as yet. Soon after returning from her vacation in New York,
she got busy at Mehboob Studio in Mumbai, shooting a song for Anil Sharma's 'Apne' (where she is
opposite Sunny Deol); while her nationwide 'Romanov' ad campaign will start anytime now," the
spokesperson informed.
The rumour about 'Babel' (filmed by the Mexican director Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu) began, as the
reputed international website imdb.com (International Movie Data Base) incorrectly listed Shilpa's name
in the cast of the venture.
A number of other websites also indicated that Shilpa played the role of an
Indian girl Sameera Sehgal.
Denying knowledge of who might have been behind this mischief, Bhagwagar added that he has written
to imdb.com to rectify the information.
