In a recent interview with the Mirror, when Shilpa was asked who she fancied being stuck with in a lift, she said: ""A lift man. And I quite like, erm, who is the guy in ‘The Holiday' with Cameron Diaz? Jude Law? Oh, he is hot. And while we're at it, I wouldn't mind Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise."
"And if we're having so many, I'll also have Colin Firth. Oh, and Russell Crowe. Yes, let's have them all, why not?" the Mirror quoted Shilpa.
There is serious news doing the rounds about Shilpa's mom looking for a suitable groom for her. But with a choice list of this stature, it seems her suitors and matchmakers will have to work doubly hard to get close and match up.
When queried about her marriage plans, the Bollywood beauty said, "Well, I've had plenty of marriage proposals.
None I've wanted to take up though. I'm sure it'll happen for me eventually, but I need to find the right father. I don't say husband – I say father, that's what I'm looking for. But where is the time? I don't have time to make a cup of tea right now."
Shilpa who is all set to turn topnotch entrepreneur internationally with her upcoming fragrance launch as well as a chain of Indian curry restaurants in Britain, still holds Bollywood very close to her heart.
"I wouldn't completely move here. I'm an Indian, I have a lot of work in India, but this is my second home. I feel really elated the minute I step off the plane in the UK. In India, I've been a celebrity for a very long time, and I don't think any Indian has ever become as famous as me here. It's weird," she added.
In fact, it was her ‘Indian ness' which was on display again when she talked once more about forgiving Jade Goody who bullied and insulted on ‘Celebrity Big Brother'. Looks like, this ‘Indian ness' gives a bit of a chance to all the Indian men out there who are totally in love with the Bollywood diva! - Sneha Hazarika
