Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty's tormentor in the UK's Celebrity Big Brother show Jade Goody today toured different slums here today and spent some time with their dwellers.

Goody, accused of making alleged racial remarks against Shilpa during the reality show arrived here on Monday.

At the slum, she sat closeted inside a tiny room, finally emerging to an unmanageable crowd of onlookers and media persons.

Many slum dwellers, visibly amused at the commotion in their cluster, had a word of advise for the "foreign madam".

"We only asked her why she didn't like our Indian actress Shilpa Shetty when she visited London. But we also told her that we have really liked the fact that she has come to visit us. She only kept on saying, "Thank you", said Krishna, whose one-room shanty was more than two hundred meters away.

During the show, Goody had told Shilpa "to go back to slums" that had created a furore both in India and the UK.

However, Shilpa emerged victorious from the Celebrity Big Brother house last month after a series of rows with other contestants which sparked an international race row when they were accused of racially bullying her.

The Bollywood star was called a "dog" on the programme and was referred to as "the Indian" and "Poppadom".

Amid the controversy, the Indian tourist board put full-page advertisements in newspapers inviting Goody to visit India.

Shilpa, who has denied her fellow contestants were racist, has since seen her public profile in Britain rise and has appeared on several TV appearances and held high profile meetings.
